If you franchise player had 3 broken ribs, would you really stick him BACK in late in an essentially meaningless game he'd already been pulled from?
No chance. So much risk and for essentially nothing.
For that reason I say there's no way he has broken ribs.
Bellichick is not stupid and neither is Brady.

Anything from a crack to bones busting into the lungs is considered a fractured rib. Believe me, Brady does not have the type of fractured ribs one gets from a car accident or other high speed impact into a tree or cement.

A break in the thick tissue (cartilage) that connects the ribs to the breastbone may also be called a fractured rib, even if the bone itself is not broken.

No doubt what he has is painful, but he's not out there throwing with the same injury as someone who was hit by a truck.
