Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has downplayed any concern about him sitting out Wednesday's practice with what the team classified as a left shoulder ailment. Brady was a full participant in Thursday's practice. "I'll be out there [Thursday], you don't have to worry about that," said Brady before practice, hinting that the coaching staff felt it was best for him to take an additional day of rest. "It's not the first practice I've missed over the years," Brady said. "Coming off a game on Saturday or Sunday, you're just doing everything you can to be prepared. When Coach [Bill Belichick] feels it's best to do other things to get yourself ready, that's what you do. You can still use all that time very wisely. You're not lounging around taking naps or anything like that. You're just putting in extra work and make sure you're getting prepared."
