FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP)—Tom Brady(notes) practiced with the New England Patriots for the first time Tuesday since suffering a season-ending knee injury in last year’s opening game.

Brady and nearly the entire team participated in the first of four days of this week’s organized team activities, Patriots spokesman Stacey James said.

The first three days of OTAs were held last week for young players and others signed as free agents in the offseason who needed more time to get used to the playbook. About 50 players, roughly half the team, took part in those. The sessions are voluntary.

The only media access for this week’s sessions is Thursday. James said Tuesday that Brady threw passes and did other activities during his first formal practice with the club since he suffered a torn left knee ligament midway through the first quarter of the Patriots 17-10 win over the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Patriots plan a total of 12 OTA days, two fewer than the maximum allowed by the NFL. Players do not wear full pads.

Brady had surgery Oct. 6 and a subsequent operation for an infection in the knee.

There have been numerous signs that the NFL MVP in 2007 would be ready for the season opener Sept. 14 against the Buffalo Bills.

In an interview for this week’s issue of Sports Illustrated, Brady said he has no pain or restrictions in his movement when he runs and cuts.

He was quoted as saying that he is “as confident as anyone could be that I’ll be ready to play, back to playing normally, when the season starts. I’ve done everything I could to push myself, sometimes too hard. Right now, I’m doing everything. Literally everything. There’s nothing I can’t do.”

The article also quoted the 31-year-old Brady as saying, “I want to play until I am 41.”

On Feb. 18, Brady, a two-time Super Bowl MVP, said his recovery was on schedule for him to be ready for the opener.

Ten days later, the Patriots traded Matt Cassel(notes), who had replaced Brady, to Kansas City. Cassel hadn’t started the previous seven seasons with Southern California and the Patriots but led New England to an 11-5 record but no playoff berth. He started all 15 games after taking over for Brady in the opener.

The Patriots did not add a veteran quarterback in the offseason, leaving 2008 third-round draft pick Kevin O’Connell(notes) as Brady’s primary backup

Brady, who has thrown passes to receivers during the offseason, was upbeat in an interview last week with “Patriots Today,” the team’s in-house internet show.

“I’m feeling great and just excited to be out there on the field, training with my teammates,” Brady said. “It’s always fun being back in this competitive environment and working with these guys to try to make 2009 our best season. It’s been fun to be back.”

[Cochise™]

Top 3 of one of the worse things someone can do to me while still surviving.

[Cochise™]

did the jets find a qb yet?, are they calling john elway next?

Looks like a the Pats need to call Vrabel, Cassel and Symore back.

[Fast Eddie]

typical jets fan, talking smack about a team not even in the hunt. make me swallow my words or kindness for the jets.

[tomciz]

raul earned his shit talking much as i hate to admit...rex ryan mustve ate some luck beans made by mark sanchez

[Fast Eddie]

its just pretty gay for someone going to a championship to talk smack about a team they didnt even play in the playoffs and is already gone. but i forget sometimes that im talking about Raul here.

[Cochise™]

Ooooh, wow, lol Did it sting a lil bit to watch the lawn cutter win yesterday? Listen man, you made the comments, i'm just recalling them. Weather we met in the playoffs or not, Tom Brady was still drinking his Ensure last night as the Jets beat the highest scoring offense in the league. You don't want to be called out? Don't make bull shit comments.

[tomciz]

fuck you my grandma drinks ensure dick!!

[Fast Eddie]

stings? of course it does u idiot, my team is gone done kaput over, what do u expect me to be happy?.... what your not understanding is that the mexican had a passer rating of 60 something??? are you kidding me? Brady could have one eye one leg and M.S. and still will be better than javier. its cute tho. i apologize for being excited brady is back, and pushing for him to have a big season. i hope your team gets raped next week, and peyton has sex with mark's mom and then drops her off at the INS. fucker.

Really? Could he? What was Tom Brady's rating last week? You don't know? IT WAS 49!!! 49!!!!!!!!! 49!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know what Sanchez' was last week? 139.4 Eat a dick! lmao

[Fast Eddie]

i know what toms was. it sucked beond all belief, but in a game that made you start the smack talking sanchez was a 60 something . he will not bring you anywhere except a golf course 100 miles south of Bradys

[joeyc521]

quarterback rating dont mean shit if u cant win the game....high rating or not, mark sanchez is 2-0 these playoffs...thats the bottom line

[Cochise™]

what your not understanding is that the mexican had a passer rating of 60 something??? are you kidding me? Brady could have one eye one leg and M.S. and still will be better than javier.

Dude, this is what you said. And Tom did not play this week. So...the only playoff game I can recall this year was last weeks. You said Tom could get 60 with MS. Well, he got 49. What does that tell you? Aids? One can only hope.

[Fast Eddie]

no, i said tom could be a better QB than sanchez with MS and limbs missing

[Cochise™]

Well I hope Brady contracts Aids. So there.

[Fast Eddie]

btw this thread was about Tom Brady coming back from a serious injury and showing everyone he is still one of the elite QBS. You qouted my original statement asking if you guys found a QB yet? just a small comparison between the two.

Sanchez - 2,444yds 12TD 20INT 53.8%CMP 63 Rating

Brady - 4,398yds 28TD 13INT 96.2 Rating

so u be happy that your TEAM exceeded your expectations, ill be happy that my QB showed he still got it. I didnt expect them to make it past the ravens . without welker and there shakey Def, and Brady playing with ailments for the last half of the season.

HHHAHAHAHA

did u really just compare brady to a rookie???


thats classic bro

[Cochise™]

Hysterical.

[Cochise™]

btw Ed, I didn't see playoff wins in your stats. How come?

[Fast Eddie]

HHHAHAHAHA

did u really just compare brady to a rookie???


thats classic bro
its ok for raul to compare them but not me???

[Fast Eddie]

btw Ed, I didn't see playoff wins in your stats. How come?

your right he def WON yesterdays game, and he def WON last weeks with his amazing 12 complete throws. granted 12 for 15 is a nice ratio, but 12 completed passes aint winning you know superbowl

[Fast Eddie]

play caller must have alot of confidence in him

[joeyc521]

this team is not built to have a quarterback throw 30 or 40 times a game...they are the best running team in the league & have the best defense in the league....those 2 things put together mean you control the clock which is how you win games....look at the steelers the first year they won the super bowl wit big ben, he was horrible that year but they had a good run game with a great defense


so to combat your statement about 12 completions not winning a Super Bowl, you are dead wrong Llloyd

[tomciz]

yea run first offenses with great d have a good record in the superbowl...ie the giants vs the patriots....but they gotta get through peyton first if they do im gonna pick the jets to win the superbowl no joke

[Cochise™]

When Trent Dilfer won with the Ravens in 2001 he has 12 completions with 153 yards and one touchdown.

[Fast Eddie]

you know what you guys are right Mark Sanchez is def winning you guys all the way!!!

[RAYVERonXTC]

couldn't we had made a deiff thread for this lol talk about thread jacking either way Brady sucks lmao, why is it that when the patriots lose there's always a "oh he was playing at below 100%" or "we didnt have this guy or that guy" same story with the colts when its an "elite" team there's always an excuse a win is a win a loss is a loss in the stat column.

[Cochise™]

Word to big bird.
