Knowing that Derek Jeter and Tom Brady played different sports, it was impossible to watch them play together. However, off the field, the two American sports greats once promoted the same brand.
Per a New York Post report from 2006, the former Yankees’ shortstop signed with Movado to promote the company’s high-end sports watches. The report also confirmed that Brady was already endorsing the watch company when Jeter signed the contract.
At the time when Jeter joined the watch company, he also admitted that he does not have any watch collection like other athletes.
