Patriots quarterback Tom Brady missed Wednesday’s practice, a frigid exercise on the Gillette Stadium field.
He’s nursing an injury to his left shoulder, a sprain suffered in the win over the Dolphins. It’s not major, and it didn’t affect him against the Bills, but it’s an issue that may affect fundamentals.
Brady may sit out Thursday, too. Coach Bill Belichick has said he’ll treat practices during the bye week different for every player, and allowing Brady to stay inside is one example.
