He still hasn't made an appearance at Patriots OTAs, but Tom Brady has been working out with Julian Edelman at Gillette Stadium.
While Edelman - coming off missing last season after knee surgery - has been participating at Patriots OTAs, Brady has stayed away. Last week, he was in Monaco for promotional events for companies with which he has endorsement deals.
Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports that Brady has made it a point not to be working out in the bubble in the hours his teammates are at OTAs.
Amid reports of tension between coach Bill Belichick and Brady, Patriots owner Robert Kraft said last week that both the quarterback and All-Pro tight end Rob Gronkowski, who has also not participated in the team’s voluntary OTAs, will be at mandatory mini-camp Tuesday through Thursday of next week.
According to Dale Arnold of WEEI, Gronkowski has been working out in the practice bubble as well.
