New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is not participating in Friday's training camp activities at Gillette Stadium.
Tom Brady is here... loosening up with teammates... but doesn't look like he'll be practicing. Not in uniform. Not wearing a helmet. — Phil Perry (@PhilAPerry) July 26, 2019
Before fans get nervous, it appears to just be a day off for the 41-year-old quarterback.

Brady is one of several Patriots players present on Day 2 of camp but not participating:
Not present at practice: Michael Bennett, David Andrews, Cole Croston, Yodny Cajuste
Here but not in uniform: Tom Brady, Julian Edelman, Demaryius Thomas, Sony Michel, Nate Ebner, Ken Webster
Returned to action: Deatrich Wise

Brady took part in drills Thursday and looked fine physically. Backup quarterback Brian Hoyer and rookie Jarrett Stidham likely will be the focus of passing drills Friday without the six-time Super Bowl champion participating. Second-year quarterback Danny Etling practiced Thursday as a wide receiver.
