Videos leading up to the Fanatics Flag Football Classic provided sufficient hints about Tom Brady’s athleticism, even at 48. Despite staying away from the gridiron since 2023, Brady maintained his physical shape for an event similar to Saturday’s, which took place on March 21 in Los Angeles.

NFL stars gathered at BMO Stadium for a memorable event as the nation anticipates the Summer Olympics in two years. Divided into two teams, the players competed against each other and faced off against the Team USA flag football team in a single game.

Brady captained and played as the quarterback of the Founders FFC. Midway through their game against Team USA, Brady evaded an onrushing defender before connecting with former Patriots WR Stefon Diggs inside the red zone for a touchdown.

When the tournament was first announced, Saudi Arabia was selected as the host nation. However, with the US-Israel coalition waging war against Iran in the Middle East, the organizers had to change the location.

The games went ahead in LA on Saturday. In the first game, Brady’s Founders FFC met Team USA. Brady threw a TD pass to Diggs. After seeing Brady’s connection with Diggs, football fans urged the retired signal callers to return to the NFL once more.

Brady retweeted the video with the caption: “Gets you thinking.”

Despite Brady’s inspiring performance, his team suffered a 43-16 defeat at the hands of Team USA. In game 2, they faced off against Joe Burrow and Davante Adams‘ Wildcats FFC, which ended 34-26. During the game, Brady smashed the football against Logan Paul‘s chest, riling up the YouTube/WWE star.

Brady’s team ended up 0-2, and Paul marked the occasion by taunting the seven-time Super Bowl champion.

Technically, Paul did win since he was part of the Wildcats’ winning team. However, his contribution to the victory is questionable. Regardless, the 30-year-old rarely lets an opportunity slip by when he can gain the hand. However, it’s unlikely Paul’s dream of facing any NFL athlete in a wrestling ring will ever happen, especially since the WWE recently blocked his match against Le’Veon Bell.
