Tom Brady can't even talk football with teammates during suspension

Tom Brady's four-game suspension to start the season will keep him out of New England Patriots facilities, but surely teammates will come visit him at home.

They just better not talk football, or even toss one around.

According to NFL VP of communication Brian McCarthy, those are both big no-nos for the suspended star.

Brady can't "engage in any team football-related activities or discussions with teammates, even if away from the club facility," McCarthy told the Boston Herald recently.

Brady also is not allowed to receive game tape from team personnel in order to study at home, but Faulk also thinks Brady will find a way around that, too.

Considering the fallout from Deflategate -- and Spygate before that -- maybe it would be wise for Brady to just lay low.

After all, when he returns in Week 5 the Patriots will be facing the Cleveland Browns.
