What "Deflategate" Taught Tom Brady About Himself

"Deflategate" was one of the biggest controversies to occur in the storied career of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. The Patriots were accused of using deliberately underinflated footballs to win a game, and it led to a four-game suspension for Tom. Here, the future Hall of Famer opens up to Oprah about what he was feeling during the height of the controversy—"It was a really tough experience in my life"—and how he ultimately found resilience afterward.

Listen to the conversation between Oprah and Tom Brady on Oprah's podcast, Oprah's Super Soul Conversations. Part 1 will be available Monday, June 18, and Part 2 will be available Wednesday, June 20. You can find both on Apple Podcasts.
