TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady said Thursday that the ring finger of his throwing hand is fine, although his demeanor in practice indicated otherwise, that an injury is causing him discomfort.
"Great. I feel great," Brady said when asked about his finger, with a hint of sarcasm that drew some laughter from reporters. "It's football season."
Brady, who usually has Wednesdays off, was a full participant in that practice and went through his full workload Thursday. But he was spotted during the portion of practice that was open to the media shaking his right hand multiple times, as if bothered by the injury.
