Tom Brady is practicing again with the New England Patriots and looking forward to playing in the season opener.
The star quarterback returned to practice Friday after a one-day absence that the team attributed to a calf injury. Brady was wearing sweatpants during the warmup period that was open to the media.
The Patriots open the season on Sunday at the Miami Dolphins.
