A short list of headlines, with the topic of this morning focused on Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's contract situation.
Brady spoke to the media Friday night at a celebrity football game for The Audi Best Buddies Challenge, which is a 100-mile charity ride and walk benefiting Best Buddies International, the nonprofit devoted to helping people with intellectual disabilities. The ride is scheduled for today.
