Very dumb move by Brady here.
I can't believe his lawyers let him do that.
Why would brady destroy his phone? There is nothing good to come out of that. He may not even win in court now.
The league has no right to his phone so why wouldn't he destroy it? I'm told it's nearly impossible to wipe a phone clean so if I thought somebody would have my phone without my approval I'd do the same thing. I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't counseled to do something like that as it would be a huge precedent to set if somehow the league got access to it over his objections.
Unless, unless it wasn't to hide text messages, but maybe private communication or pictures from Giselle?? You can have all the assurances you want but if there were risque pictures of one of the world's most famous supermodels, those things are getting leaked to TMZ. What if he just decided it was better to destroy the phone and take his chances arguing personal property than take the chance the league gets to see very personal stuff.....?Very dumb move by Brady here.

Like maybe they copied all the text messages on the phone that were relevant, handed them to the league and figured the rest of the stuff is personal and not relevant.....Usually, a litigation hold letter or email is sent to the client instructing him or her to preserve electronic and physical evidence. It's spoliation of evidence to destroy evidence that may be relevant and that usually leads to the court drawing an inference against the party who destroyed the evidence on the issue where the evidence is relevant. That said, I find it hard to believe anything Goodell says. There must be more to it than the destruction of the phone - I suspect this decision leaves out substantial evidence favorable to Brady - including the reason why the phone was destroyed, assuming the phone was actually destroyed.

I wonder why this was not in the Ted Wells report ?
I'd ask why would Brady destroy his phone if he's not obligated to hand it over? Doesnt make a lot of sense.i get im an outside fan, and will probably be blasted for this. But I was actually on Bradys side until today.
Let me ask this, if you are innocent, why destroy your phone?
