rest - https://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...ots/569086002/The New England Patriots’ awkward offseason continued this week when Tom Brady passed on the chance to squash concerns over the state of the franchise, instead hinting that he feels under-appreciated and has only “moments” of happiness while at work.
During a lengthy interview with broadcaster Jim Gray on Monday at the Milken Institute Global conference in California, Brady was asked about the level of support he receives from coach Bill Belichick and owner Robert Kraft and whether they have “the appropriate gratitude” for what he's accomplished. Brady answered with an exaggerated "I plead the Fifth!" then smiled as his response drew some chuckles.
Perhaps he thought a moment of levity would save him, but it didn't go unnoticed that the five-time Super Bowl champion and three-time league MVP never definitively answered.
