Tom Brady has been suspended four games by the NFL for conduct detrimental to the integrity of the league. As has been the case throughout this entire process, everyone has an opinion, most scattered across both sides of the fence.

The team has also issued a strong statement in support of Brady.

Here are a few of the immediate reactions. We’ll update this as more comes out, so be sure to check back for more.

Here’s the team’s running back, who will also be suspended for the season opener against Pittsburgh.

Former Baltimore Raven Torrey Smith seems surprised, which is shocking in its own right given his previous stances on the issue.

If you missed it, Brady returns against the Indianapolis Colts — the very team that accused Brady of this in the first place.

Of course, Donald Trump weighed in as well, and he actually had maybe the best response of all.
