Report: Tom Brady's appeal hearing lasted 11 hours
After nearly 11 hours, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady’s appeal hearing has concluded. The hearing began a little after 9:00 a.m ET and wrapped up about 8:30 p.m.
It is now up to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to decide the fate of Brady’s existing four-game suspension. It is reported that much of the time was used to dissect the Wells Report and that over 40 people were present at the quarterback’s hearing.
According to Jeffrey Kessler, outside council for the union, Brady stayed until the end of the hearing. Kessler released this statement upon conclusion of the hearing:
Brady attorney Jeff Kessler: "I don't know what the timetable is (for a ruling), but we feel like we made a very compelling case in there."

Apparently some folks were not shy about trying to squeeze an autograph out of Brady.

Brady should be hearing back at some point in the not-so-distant future. After all, New England’s training camp starts in a little over a month.
