November 12, 2008 Pats glad to have Brady back in town Play video

(NECN) - Since injuring his knee in the first week of the season, Tom Brady has had surgery and reported set backs along the way.

But Brady is back in Foxboro, working out at the team's training facility.

Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, for one, believes Brady's presence around the team is a good thing.

"He's a very positive guy," Belichick said in his Wednesday press conference. "It's great to have him."

And Brady's understudy, thrust into the role of starting quarterback, feels the same way.

"The more he's around, the better," said Brady's replacement, Matt Cassel.
