IIRC, if a player receives treatment from the trainer, they must be listed on the injury report.

Interesting, that would definitely change it up

Or misses any part of practice...
That would be news to me.
Not any part of practice. Any part of the 11-on-11 teamwork portion of practice.
Wouldn't suprise me one bit if the last play of every practice they pulled him out to practice the victory formation just to be cosher with the rules.
If a player misses a portion of the 11-on-11 teamwork, that doesn't mean he has to be listed as probable, questionable, doubtful, or out. It just means he has to be listed as having missed a portion of the 11-on-11 teamwork. It's a separate category.So that wouldn't explain why Brady has been listed as probable every week.

He doesn't HAVE to, but he CAN be listed on the injury report if they hold him out of any part of praactice.BTW, wow must be a slow news day.

Tom Brady and Matt Damon = separated at birth.
He has to be listed if he misses any portion of the 11-on-11 teamwork. (Again -- not as probable or questionable or whatever, but just as having missed practice. It's a separate category.)Probable is supposed to mean a 75% chance of playing.
Questionable is 50%. Doubtful is 25%. Out is 0%.
I'm pretty sure that whether a player is listed as probable or questionable or whatever is not supposed to depend on how much practice he's missed or whether a trainer made him get in the whirlpool, etc. It's just supposed to depend on the probability that he'll play.
If Brady has been listed as probable for 30 weeks and has played every time, I think that for any reasonable confidence interval we can reject the hypothesis that he's been listed accurately.

Belichick was once fined for listing Richard Seymour as probable when Seymour didn't even make the trip for the game. I believe he's been doing his hijinx with Brady on the injury report ever since.
Sort of his own, pathetic little protest, which frankly he should get fined for.

BB is just being completely honest while playing a game with the injury report, IMO. QBs throw the ball so much that their shoulder is usually sore all/most of the time, so Brady like most QBs likely has a sore right/throwing shoulder most of the time. BB knows this from speaking to his QB and lists his him as probable on the injury report which means, I believe, virtually certain to play.

The Pats lose two games in a row and all of a sudden rumors of Brady being hurt circulate.
The Pats are still a damn good team, but can't the loses be attributed to the Pats just not being as dominate a team as they once were?
