Foxboro, MA (Sports Network) - Randy Moss had six receptions for 116 yards and a touchdown as New England overcame an early injury to quarterback Tom Brady to escape Kansas City, 17-10, in the season-opener for both clubs at Gillette Stadium.
Brady was 7-of-11 for 76 yards before departing the game with a left knee injury midway through the first quarter. Backup Matt Cassel was solid over the remainder of the contest, throwing for 152 yards and one score on 13-of-18 passes.
"I don't have any update on Tom," said Patriots head coach Bill Belichick. "They are looking at him and doing some tests on him, so we will see how that turns out. But I don't have any information on him."
Brady is scheduled to undergo and MRI on Monday. Yahoo! Sports, citing a team source, said Brady suffered serious ligament damage and will miss the remainder of the regular season.
"It's bad," a team source told the web site. "We're going to have to play without him."

If Tom Brady is out for the season, we’ll see just how good New England is at overcoming adversity.
