I am researching whether a jersey was actually worn by Tom Brady in 2002. The neck tag reads "02-48" and I know 48 is the size Brady wears. Font on the nameplate and numbers look correct. Make of the jersey is Reebok. The jersey does show some wear. At least two sizable impact marks on the back and a 1 inch repair on the sleeve. At least one impact mark on the sleeves, as well. What's different about this jersey is that the sleeves are cuffed. Brady normally has been wearing loose sleeves. I've been told that someone high up at The Hall at Patriots Place said it is most likely a 2002 preseason jersey. Having looked at pictures from the regular season, I have been able to determine that Brady wore loose sleeves throughout the 2002 regular season.

This picture is intriguing. Cannot say for sure if Brady is wearing cuffed sleeves in the very first game of the preseason but the sleeves sure may be cuffed here. He was wearing loose sleeves for the last preseason game.

One of the impact marks on the back appears to be silver-ish. Here's the third preseason game's box score.

I cannot find any pictures of Brady in these two preseason games from that year. Would anyone be able to help? Any help would be very much appreciated. Videos of the game or pictures or any other information. Thank you very much.
