Geez, I wish this particular controversy would just go away! From everything I've read, he may not have necessarily had anything to do with the actual deflation, but as an experienced quarterback, he should have known at the start of the game of the actual condition of the game balls! As soon as he felt that first ball, he should have said something to someone. All of the retired quarterbacks ( Phil Simms, Terry Bradshaw, et al ) have said that you can immediately tell the difference between a properly inflated ball, and one that is underweight, even slightly. That's where Brady's guilt would lie! He was probably aware of the deflated balls, but didn't say anything . . .

I would doubt that he is the only one. I mean, I would imagine that receivers and running backs could tell.
