 FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) - Tedy Bruschi lifted both legs far over his head as he lay on his back and stretched. He chased teammate Mike Vrabel and blocked him playfully in the back. He ran to the next drill. And he smiled.
For the first time since a minor stroke eight months ago threatened his NFL career, the Patriots' star linebacker was practicing with his team Wednesday.
"I'm back playing the game that I love," Bruschi said before putting on his shoulder pads and his dark blue 54 jersey, carrying his helmet out of the locker room and walking into the noon sun.
