Report: Tom Brady destroyed phone, suspension to be upheld. The NFL is going to reject Tom Brady’s appeal and uphold the four-game suspension he is facing for his alleged role in Deflategate.
Stephen A. Smith said on ESPN’s “First Take” Roger Goodell will not reduce or overturn Brady’s suspension. Perhaps more shocking, Brady actually destroyed his own personal cell phone rather than just refusing to turn it over.
The NFL was furious that Brady wouldn’t give up “relevant” text messages and emails that might help clarify his level of involvement — or lack thereof — in Patriots equipment managers allegedly letting air out of game balls.
