Tom Brady‘s parents were in the dark about the QB’s concussion situation last year — but his father says the Patriots star wouldn’t tell them if he suffered one anyway.
Tom Brady Sr. spoke with The Boston Globe about the controversy surrounding TB12′s brain — ever since Gisele went on TV and said he definitely had a concussion last year, despite no injury report from the Pats.
“We didn’t get to any games last year, except the Super Bowl, so I wasn’t aware of his health condition throughout the year. He wouldn’t tell us.”
Brady Sr. also said the topic of concussions is “inflammatory” — adding, “It’s a hot-button issue, so if somebody alludes to something, it’s going to be blown up whether it’s a big deal or not.”
“I think every parent that sees their kid playing football knows that these guys are big and fast and things can happen that aren’t always good … Hopefully, if something does happen, it will be dealt with as intelligently as possible.”
