Tom Brady Injury: Patriots QB’s Elbow Looks Just Fine During Warmups

FOXBORO, Mass. — Last season, a nagging knee injury seemingly precluded Tom Brady from doing his normal jog down the sidelines during warmups. The pregame strolls typically end with an ecstatic Brady fist pumping toward his fans and/or haters in the stands.

So, with the New England Patriots quarterback nursing a sore elbow, would fans have to settle for diminished theatrics Saturday afternoon?

The answer: a resounding “no.”

Prior to kickoff against the Buffalo Bills, Brady jogged down the sideline at Gillette Stadium and finished with a fist pump that hardly looked hampered by an elbow injury.

Take a look:

Now, this hardly means Brady’s elbow injury is a thing of the past. In fact, new details suggest the ailment is anything but minor.

Furthermore, the Patriots quarterback still could be seen stretching the elbow during warmups.

The Patriots can clinch the AFC East title with a victory over the Bills. Should they lose, the Patriots will need either a victory next week against the Miami Dolphins or a loss by the Bills to earn the division crown.
