The New England Patriots quarterback kept a pretty low profile this offseason, staying away from any football activities that weren’t mandatory so he could spend more time with his family. And despite reports that his drive isn’t where it used to be, it doesn’t sound like that’s impacting him as the start of the season draws near.
