Tom Brady's chances at overturning his four-game suspension continue to diminish.
The U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals denied petition by Brady and the NFL Players Association on Wednesday to rehear his suspension case, meaning the New England Patriots quarterback's last opportunity to dissolve the NFL-issued punishment would have to come in a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court. It remains to be seen if Brady's legal team will appeal to country's highest court and, more importantly, if the court will hear the case.
If Brady petitions the Supreme Court, his legal team could first ask the Second Circuit court for a stay of it's decision.
