FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was limited during practice Thursday with what the team designated as a right shoulder issue.

It is unclear when the shoulder began to bother Brady, who was not mentioned on the team's practice participation report on Wednesday.

Brady did appear to be dealing with some discomfort on his right throwing hand during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the New York Jets, though he downplayed the issue in an interview with WEEI sports radio in Boston, saying, "I'm like everybody; there's just bumps and bruises that happen over the course of the football season.

"We'll just get treatment like always, be out there, and try to go out and execute as well as I can next week. It's just part of football."

Brady isn't a stranger to the injury report.
