Tom Brady often has loads to speak about when it comes to his children, just like how any other parent would be proud of their kids. Although he is the greatest quarterback of all time, it doesn’t imply that his kids would follow in his footsteps, especially his younger ones, Benjamin Rein and Vivian Lake. But Jack, is somewhat similar, adopting the essence of his father’s competitiveness on the football field.

Growing up, Tom Brady had humble beginnings and struggled hard to get to where he is today. No doubt, along with fame, luxury followed his path. But the quarterback doesn’t want to let this get over his children’s heads or their passion for life.

While speaking in an interview, Brady mentioned his oldest son Jack, whom he shares with his ex-flame Bridget Moynahan, has an inclination towards athleticism, especially football.

What more to expect than having a great quarterback like his father to guide him? He revealed that Jack always tried hard not to disappoint his dad and owns that competitive mindset playing the sport.

Thus, he has no choice but constantly progress to win Brady’s appreciation. “(John “Jack” Edward Thomas) is just like me — he holds a lot in. He wants to try hard, and he never wants to disappoint his dad,” Brady said in the interview.

While explaining his childhood and how it’s different for his kids, he added, “I’d wake up early on the weekends to do stuff with my dad. That’s why I didn’t party a lot. If Dad wanted to golf, I wanted to be there with him. And if I ever missed those things, it would crush me.” On the other side, the Seven-time Super Bowl Champion mentioned that his other two kids are different.

“I think one of the great highlights of my life is watching him play, and him grow and develop, and my kids in general, too,” Brady said. “He’s way smarter, he’s got a great work ethic. He’s just a great kid. But I can help him at quarterback. He has great hand-eye coordination. He actually moves better than I did at his age,” Brady explained as a proud father.
