"This makes Tom Brady look bad" - Peter King on Tampa QB's role in Dolphins tampering scandal

NFL analyst Peter King called out Tom Brady for his involvement in the Miami Dolphins tampering scandal brought upon by owner Stephen Ross.

Peter King believes that there's no coming back from this one for the seven-time Super Bowl-winning signal-caller. He went on to claim that the quarterback plays by a different set of rules because of who he is. He wrote about this on his Football Morning in America column.

“This makes Tom Brady look bad, obviously, like it’s OK for him to play by a different set of rules because he’s Tom Brady. Maybe he knew this was coming, and that’s why he’s had one press availability in training camp, and none since this news came down Tuesday. Whenever he does speak, this is going to be very hard to justify in any way.”

As for the rest of the equation, King believes the NFL let Ross, the 82-year-old multi-billionaire, off easy with his suspension without pay until mid-October:

“Ross denied virtually everything and seemed outraged at his organization being found guilty of tampering. But he’s lucky the league’s investigation gave him a pass on what could have made the NFL force him to sell the team — charges by Brian Flores that the owner offered him $100,000 per game to lose in order to better their draft position."

Tom Brady to the Dolphins is all but dead now

The true test of what the quarterback plays by will be to see if he can still end up joining a franchise he tampered with.

If he somehow ends up on the Dolphins, the NFL would basically be admitting that Brady can do just about whatever he wants.

Given Brian Flores' pending lawsuit with the league, it's unlikely Roger Goodell would allow Brady to end up with the franchise he was so blatantly breaking the rules with.
