The New York Jets fans were sick of playing Tom Brady’s New England Patriots twice for more than two decades. Even in retirement, he continues to haunt his onetime divisional rivals.

Brady was at the Gillette Stadium in Foxboro on Friday (August 8) to see the unveiling of his statue made in honor of his contributions during his tenure with the Patriots.

The 48-year-old took this opportunity to take a jab at the Jets.

This statue isn’t just for Pats fans. It will also give Jets fans something to throw their beers at as they leave the stadium every year… Probably in the second quarter. Maybe in the third.

Tom Brady said

Brady played 36 times against the Jets as the Patriots’ quarterback. He posted a 29-7 record, with 57 touchdown passes to 15 interceptions, 8,649 yards, and a completion percentage of 62.1 percent.

Brady played one fixture against the Jets after moving to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He threw for 410 yards, 3 touchdowns, and one interception. The Patriots have struggled after Brady’s departure, but they continue to enjoy winning games against Jets, posting an 8-2 record.

Patriots owner Robert Kraft thanked Brady for his contributions to the Patriots franchise. After that, he ordered the unveiling of Brady’s statue.

The stoic-looking statue featured Brady holding his helmet by the facemask in his left hand. His right hand, meanwhile, pointed upwards to the sky in exultation.

Tom Brady won six Super Bowls for the Patriots and one with the Buccaneers. He’s the NFL’s all-time leader in passing yards (89,214), passing touchdowns (649), and wins (286, including postseason).

Hey Cam! Welcome to the NFL, my man. You’re gonna grow in ways you couldn’t even imagine, and I’m gonna be watching, and I’m always pulling for you.

Tom Brady said

Ward was awestruck by the gesture. The Miami graduate replied,“That’s crazy for the greatest player of all time to send me a video like that.”

Ward had an incredible final year of college football with the Miami Hurricanes. He threw for 4,313 yards and 39 touchdowns against just seven interceptions on his way to becoming a Heisman finalist, which he lost to Colorado and now Jacksonville Jaguars WR/CB Travis Hunter.

The 23-year-old began his college career with Incarnate Word, where he spent two seasons before entering the NCAA transfer portal to sign for the Washington State Cougars. He won 12 games in Washington, averaging over 3250 yards and a total of 48 touchdowns. Ward transferred schools once again in 2024, landing in Miami, where he won 10 games.

The Tennessee Titans selected Ward first overall in the 2025 NFL draft. The Titans are in a rebuild phase after finishing 3-14 last season. Ward’s first test will be against Brady’s former team, the Buccaneers, in Tampa Bay. After that, the Titans face the Falcons and the Vikings in the final preseason games before starting the 2025 campaign with a trip to Denver to face the Broncos.
