While it seems as though Tom Brady has been a no-show at Gillette Stadium this offseason, it was recently reported that the New England Patriots quarterback has been putting in some reps on his own time.

According to Michael Giardi of NBC Sports Boston, Brady has been practicing in the bubble at Gillette with Julian Edelman over the past few weeks.

Guess who's been a semi-regular showing up to Gillette and working out in the bubble? Tom Brady. Who's he working out with in those throwing sessions? Julian Edelman. Yet still no OTAs

Edelman, however, has been attending both Brady’s training sessions and OTAs, while the quarterback has only worked out on his own time. Per Jeff Howe of The Athletic, Brady has not been working out in the bubble or at the TB12 Sports Therapy Center during the times that his teammates are at OTAs.

While Tom Brady and Julian Edelman have thrown together in the bubble at Gillette this offseason, I’ve been told Brady has not been at the bubble or TB12 during OTAs. Brady didn’t want the optics of being at or near Gillette while teammates were practicing.

While both Brady and tight end Rob Gronkowski have missed all of the Patriots’ OTAs, the two are expected to be at mandatory mini-camp, starting tomorrow through Thursday.
