New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick had his first press conference on Wednesday morning since the Antonio Brown sexual assault allegations surfaced and he said that the team is taking the situation one day at a time.

Belichick didn't seem too interested in talking about the situation saying the team was preparing for Miami when asked about Brown, but he finally did comment a little on the situation saying Brown will practice on Wednesday, but they will take it “one day at a time” in terms of Brown playing on Sunday.

Belichick also said this is something the team is taking very seriously.

“Both Antonio (Brown) and his representative have made statements,” Belichick told the media at the Patriots' facility on Wednesday via SI.com. “We've looked into the situation, we're taking it very seriously.”

Brown was accused of sexual assault in a lawsuit filed by Britney Taylor, a gymnast who Brown met while at Central Michigan, and later hired as a personal trainer.

In a statement from Brown's lawyer, Brown denied all of the claims and said he will pursue all legal remedies to clear his name.

“Mr. Brown denies each and every allegation in the lawsuit,” said a statement from Darren Heitner, a lawyer representing Brown. “He will pursue all legal remedies to not only clear his name but to also protect other professional athletes against false accusations.”

It might not be up to the Patriots if Brown can play on Sunday. The NFL could place Brown on the commissioner's exempt list, which means Brown could continue to collect his paycheck but could not be around the team.
