BOSTON (AP) -- New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady testified Friday that he watched his mentor Charlie Weis move in and out of consciousness after the Notre Dame coach's gastric bypass surgery.

Brady testified during Weis' medical malpractice lawsuit against two Massachusetts General surgeons.


"At that moment I wasn't sure what was happening, if that was normal or not normal," Brady said in Suffolk Superior Court. "As it developed, I realized this was a very serious issue we were dealing with."

Weis, the Patriots former offensive coordinator, claims in the lawsuit that physicians Charles Ferguson and Richard Hodin acted negligently by failing to recognize life-threatening internal bleeding and infection after the June 2002 surgery. He was in the hospital for more than a month and claims he still suffers from nerve damage in his feet.

Weis is seeking unspecified damages.

His attorneys rested their case later Friday. Ferguson and Hodin have denied any wrongdoing.

Ferguson testified Friday that he performed the surgery, and routine post-operative tests showed no problems
