Tom Brady has been an epitome of health ever since being drafted by the New England Patriots in 2000. However, he's not immune from getting injured as his shoulder injury has prevented him from participating in most of the team's practices.

However, the six-time Super Bowl winner is confident that he will be able to recover on time and play against the Baltimore Ravens for their Week 9 duel.

According to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio, the 42-year-old Brady describes himself as a “quick healer” and should be able to get back into playing shape without any problems.

“I’m a quick healer,” Brady said.

“I’m not hurt. I feel good,” he added. “I’m off the injury report yesterday. . . . Yeah, I feel pretty good. Thank you.”

TB12 has always been present for Patriots games over the past decade. Any games he missed during that time was due to other reasons. He's proud that he hasn't missed a game due to injury since his torn ACL in 2008.

The Pats thank his lucky stars for his health because he's been one of the best QBs to date. Eight games through the season and Brady's notched 2251 passing yards and 13 touchdowns. He also has a solid completion percentage at 64.7% and only made four interceptions so far.

The Patriots also need Brady as they're going to face their toughest opponents yet in the Baltimore Ravens. Brady himself praised the team, saying that they've been one of the most exciting teams to watch this season.

It will be an exciting affair, and Patriots fans will expect Brady to start and spoil them again on the way to a 9-0 record.
