Also he was under no obligation to give his cell phone. The NFL has leaked information is an unprofessional and inappropriate way.

What if he bad mouthed his coach and/or other people in a moment of frustration over something? Turning off your phone to an organization like the NFL practically guarantees all of that would be released somehow.
Never heard of redacting I take it. Okay yeah, I understand the privacy concern. But see, NFL aren't cops so they can't get a warrant to ask the phone company for redacted texts unless Brady gave them permission. He refused. He did not cooperate with a sanctioned investigation.
