New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and the NFL Players Association will take the NFL to court, according to a report.
The 37-year-old saw his four-game suspension for the deflategate scandal upheld by commissioner Roger Goodell due to the quarterback's inability to provide evidence to contradict the investigation into the incident by Ted Wells.
The NFLPA is now preparing to take the matter to federal court to overturn the suspension following its success in having Adrian Peterson's ban rescinded earlier this year.
However, they are awaiting the go-ahead from Brady to start proceedings against the league in order to see whether they can use an injunction to allow the 37-year-old to play in the opening matches of the 2015 campaign, reports NFL Network.
Brady is due to miss his side's matches against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Buffalo Bills, the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Dallas Cowboys.
