On Wednesday, July 13, 2016, a federal appeals court has rejected Tom Brady's attempt to get a new hearing on his suspension. Brady was asking for the full 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to hear the case. In April, a three-judge panel said that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was within his powers when he suspended the star quarterback four games for his role in a scheme to doctor the footballs used in a Jan. 18, 2015, playoff game.

Tom Brady will drop his appeal and serve his four-game suspension for the ''Deflategate'' scandal. Brady's latest appeal was rejected Wednesday by the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Brady was originally suspended before last season when the Patriots were found to have used underinflated footballs in the previous AFC title game.
