Tom Brady Named His 'Greatest Football Memory'
Tom Brady is arguably one of the most accomplished professional athletes in the history of sports, winning six Super Bowls with the New England Patriots and another one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
To put Brady's patently absurd degree of success in proper perspective, it would be a relatively ridiculous accomplishment for an NFL quarterback to even reach seven Super Bowls, let alone win that many.
But that's simply reality for the living legend that is "TB12."
While the five-time Super Bowl MVP won't be eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame until 2028, Brady has already been inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame.
When one takes into consideration the lengthy laundry list of the 47-year-old's NFL accomplishments, it would seem like a lofty challenge to figure out what Brady's greatest football memory might be.
Thankfully, any of that wondering can be put to rest, as Brady recently shared exactly that with NFL Films.
"My greatest football memory," Brady began. "Having Jack [Brady's 17-year-old son] in the stands after the Bucs' Green Bay victory. When he came down and gave me a hug, that was probably one of the greatest days of my life."
Brady is referring to the 2020 season where the Buccaneers beat Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers 31-26 in the NFC Championship.
That specular playoff run by Tampa Bay—having won all three playoff games on the road—led to Brady's seventh Super Bowl ring after handily taking care of Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
In getting back to what Brady said was one of the greatest days of his life, the exchange with his son Jack—who was 13 years old at the time—was flat-out awesome.
The laugh from Brady as they embraced kind of said it all. But Jack responding with "Good job!" after his father asked "How about that?" might be the very best part of the incredibly wholesome exchange.
Capturing special moments like the one we have here is exactly why NFL Films remains such an essential arm of the National Football League.
