In an interview with 98.5 The Sports Hub in Boston on Thursday, Patriots president Jonathan Kraft confirmed that the team would not have raised its Super Bowl XLIX champions banner before its Week 1 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers if Brady was not allowed to be present.
Kraft also hinted that the Patriots were planning to unveil a banner honoring their suspended quarterback if it came down to it.
Kraft explained that "1 and 2 was on it. Not ‘free.’ And there may have been some other things that were on the banner. It was much more factual and substantive than that. Tom may have been a three-time Super Bowl MVP and a four-time Super Bowl winner, and that may have been a part of it too.”
