Watch: Suspension over, Tom Brady returns to an NFL stadium
In case you hadn’t heard, today is The Day. The day Tom Brady can be back in uniform for the New England Patriots, his four-game suspension for his alleged involvement in the deflate-gate scandal over.
And unfortunately for the winless Cleveland Browns, Brady’s first game, when he’ll begin scorched-earth tour, is in their stadium.

The 39-year old was so happy to be back he was on the field – briefly – quite early. Brady rarely walks onto the field before formal warmups, but was on the FirstEnergy Field turf in his sweats, hoodie pulled up, for a few minutes before retreating back to the Patriots’ locker room.

Teammate Jabaal Sheard is so happy to have Brady back that he wore a No. 12 jersey to the stadium. Backwards, so you know exactly who he was representing.

Good luck to Cody Kessler and the Browns.
