Tom Brady landed on the injury report this week after aggravating his Achilles last week, but the New England Patriots quarterback shrugged off any questions about his Week 12 availability.
"I feel great. Ready to go," Brady said Friday, according to Doug Kyed of NESN. "So, I'll be excited for Sunday. It was good just to get a little extra treatment. I'm feeling great this time of year. It will be a fun week. Nothing to worry about."
Brady was listed as a limited participant at practice both Thursday and Friday. Nonetheless, the 40-year-old left no doubt he'll be on the field for Sunday's divisional matchup with the Miami Dolphins.
Achilles injuries can be significant. Seattle Seahawks corner Richard Sherman said he had been dealing with an Achilles problem all season and he knew it would eventually give. It did just that when he ruptured his Achilles in a Week 10 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. The extent of Brady's injury has not been revealed, however.
