FOXBORO, Mass. — Count Reggie Wayne among those who didn’t believe that Tom Brady was washed up after a few uncharacteristically mediocre games to start the 2014 NFL season. Wayne has been playing against Brady since 2001, when the Indianapolis Colts wide receiver was selected in the first round of the NFL draft and the New England Patriots quarterback took over the starting role from Drew Bledsoe, so he knows what to expect from the legendary signal caller at this point.
