Tom Brady refused to reveal how he'll be spending his time away from the Patriots during his upcoming four-game Deflategate suspension. Jim Harbaugh, though, had no issues spilling the beans.
Thanks to the Michigan coach, all of Brady's weekend plans are no longer cloaked in secrecy. He'll serve as Michigan's honorary captain for its home game against Colorado on Saturday, Sept. 17.

Brady previously visited Michigan on national signing day, which appeared to make Harbaugh giddy.
Visiting Michigan is one of the few ways Brady can actually be around football during his suspension. The NFL will not allow Brady to show up to the Patriots' facility or stadium, and he isn't permitted to engage in football-related discussions with the team. So, Brady will be completely isolated from the Patriots while Jimmy Garoppolo commandeers the offense.
At least he'll have Harbaugh to keep him company.
