Despite having a hand injury that has been the talk of the sports world for the past several days, Tom Brady looked as fired up as ever when he took the field on Sunday to warm up before the AFC Championship Game.
Brady emerged from the tunnel wearing a wrap and some tape near his right thumb, but he did not wear a glove while throwing passes prior to kickoff. His throws looked like they had plenty of zip on them:

Perhaps Brady has an extra chip on his shoulder after listening to talk about his hand injury all week, because it sounded like he told a CBS camera person to “get the f— out of the way!” as he emerged from the tunnel at Gillette Stadium.

There was never really a question about Brady’s availability for Sunday’s game, but a report we heard just before kickoff made it sound like his hand injury is more serious than initially believed.
