Tom Brady returned to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday, ending an 11-day absence from training camp for personal reasons.

Brady didn't address the media after practicing, but Todd Bowles said the quarterback was sharp throwing the football and essentially picked up where he left off when he left the team on Aug. 11.

"If anybody can get away with the 11-day break during training camp, it's Tom," Cameron Brate said. "He came back, kind of firing on all cylinders again. We're all excited he's back and ready to move on."

Bowles said the break had been planned since well before the start of training camp last month.
