-- It was reported on Tuesday night that Antonio Brown has been accused of sexual assault and rape in a new lawsuit and emails between Brown and his accuser have been released.

And some parts are not easy to understand.

-- Tom Brady's emoji game remains hot on Instagram and his latest work is an interesting comment on one of Julian Edelman's photos.
After the Patriots' Week 1 win over the Steelers, Edelman posted a photo to his Instagram of Brady as Superman and Brady's comment should be terrifying for all other teams.

Brady did throw eight incompletions with a passer rating of only 124.9 in the season opener so he is right.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: "As it relates to the issue of a press conference. We just knew it would have been a wholly unsatisfactory experience given that we're just not going to expand on the statements we provided yesterday. I understand the desire for one and the frustration for not having one, but given that we're not going to expand on what we said in our press statement it just wouldn't have been satisfactory to anyone." -- Sam Kennedy, on why the Red Sox did not hold a press conference to address the firing of Dave Dombrowski
