On Tuesday (March 17), superstar quarterback Tom Brady announced he will be leaving the New England Patriots, the team he led to nine Super Bowl appearances and six championships.
Brady made the announcement on social media stating, “it is time for me to open a new stage for my life and career.” While he doesn’t know what his “football future” holds, his relationships with Patriots Coach Bill Belichick and Pat’s owner Robert Kraft are still solid.
Another solid moment we can enjoy is the many times our favorites in the game have referenced the quarterback. From Drake to the late Pop Smoke, rappers have named dropped Brady to demonstrate their status in rap and beyond.
