TAMPA, Fla. — Tom Brady’s lip was bleeding. He had just taken a hit to the face after a completion to Mike Evans in the first half of Sunday’s NFC division playoff game against the Rams.
The Bucs quarterback complained loudly as he jogged down the field to referee Shawn Hochuli, who threw a flag on Brady for unsportsmanlike conduct, the first of his illustrious career.
But Brady is a fighter and he battled his team back from a 24-point deficit to tie the score as the fourth quarter wound down.
