Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady was excused from practice on Thursday for "personal, non-football reasons," just days after previously being excused from training camp for a personal matter, according to a report. 

The veteran signal-caller is expected to miss several days but is said to be "fine," NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported. The team is reportedly "on board" with his reasons for missing practice just days before the Buccaneers' preseason game against the Miami Dolphins on Saturday.

Head coach Todd Bowles is expected to address the situation after Thursday’s session.

Brady, along with several other team veterans, was given a rest day last week but was excused on Friday because of a personal matter, according to CBS Sports. He returned to the practice field on Saturday. 

The former New England Patriots quarterback made headlines this past week after Dolphins’ owner Stephen Ross was disciplined by the NFL following a probe that revealed the team had approached Tom Brady in the 2019 and 2021 seasons with conversations that included "the possibility of his playing for the Dolphins."
