Coach John Franco’s quote: “Brady has still been battling some injuries this year. Last week was finally a week he was fully healthy, maybe for the first time. He displayed the talent that he has, and he did a fantastic job of running, and going into the game he was our leading receiver and is one of our best defensive players. He really put together an outstanding performance, and he’s worked his tail off to get back on track. He showed Friday the talent he has. He’s a fantastic football player.”
