A heartbroken Patriot Nation is praying for Tom Brady this morning, hoping the painful...Brady Suffers Torn ACL, Could Be Out For Season
FOXBORO (WBZ) ― WBZ's Dan Roche has confirmed that the initial diagnosis on the injury Tom Brady suffered in Sunday's game is a torn ACL -- anterior cruciate ligament -- to his left knee, and he is likely done for the season.
The team will know more when they get the results of an MRI on Monday.
Brady suffered a tough hit straight to the knee by Kansas City Chief safety Bernard Pollard in the first quarter. After the hit, Brady fell to the ground and clutched his knee, grimacing in pain. Team physicians had to help him off the field.
Wide receiver Randy Moss thinks Pollard's hit may have been a cheap shot. "The face of the New England Patriots and Tom being who he is and the competitor that he is… is actually.. kind of hurts to be honest with you.
Pollard, who could have knocked Brady out for the whole season, was also phased by the tackle on the New England QB. "As soon as it happened, as soon as everything was done… As soon as I heard him scream, I said 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.' People came back to me and told me how dirty I am. I'm not a dirty player at all. I've never been a dirty player, and I never want to be a dirty player. I don't want that title."
"Anytime your starting quarterback goes out of the game, and especially a guy like Tom that's got so many qualities out on the field that lead to our success, and who is our ultimate leader of offense, so, it's a bad feeling," said Matt Light.
Before he was hit, Brady had completed a 26-yard pass to Moss, who fumbled the ball away when he was tackled.
Patriots backup quarterback Matt Cassel took over for Brady and helped lead New England to a 17-10 win over Kansas City. Cassel said he's been waiting for this moment his whole life, but he is still shaken over Brady's injury. "You never wish injury on anybody, and since I've been here and being around Tom, he's always popped back up," said Cassel.
Sunday was the first time Brady took to the field this season. He did not play any of the preseason games because of an unspecified foot injury.
