Self Proclaimed ‘Good Sport’ Tom Brady Laughs Off an Absurd Play Against 49ers Even Though It Was “Sh*t” for Him

Good sport Tom Brady 

After receiving a thrashing from the Niners and throwing two interceptions in the game, Tom Brady ended up signing one of the intercepted footballs for the opposing player. The Niners linebacker Dre Greenlaw asked the legendary signal caller for it and he obliged. Speaking about it on his ‘Let’s Go’ podcast, Brady laughed off the incident while also admitting that it was not a great feeling.

“It was sh*t for me, to be honest. It was complete sh*t,” a laughing Brady said. But the seven-time Super Bowl champion appreciated the play from Greenlaw. 

“I’m happy he’s got the ball. I wish I didn’t throw it, but I’m trying to be a good sport. Because a lot of times I’m not a good sport. I can be a pretty bad sport. In the moment when they get me in the right frame of mind, I’m actually a good sport,” Brady said.

Well, it was great to see the class act from the NFL veteran after such a heavy loss. And that too on his homecoming.

A bittersweet homecoming

Tom Brady returned to the place he grew up in and took on the Niners in front of his family. But his homecoming did not turn out as he planned it. Instead, the Niners handed him and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a heavy defeat.

Due to injuries to both Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo, the Niners gave a first league start to rookie Brock Purdy. And the last overall pick of the 2022 NFL draft outplayed the greatest QB of all time. Purdy threw just 185 yards of passing as compared to Brady’s 253 yards. But Purdy’s yards resulted in two passing touchdowns while Brady threw just one touchdown. On the top of it, Purdy also scored a rushing touchdown. The Niners registered a 35-7 win over the Buccaneers.

The Bucs have a 6-7 overall record so far this season. Brady has never had a losing regular season in his entire career. His worst season came in 2002 with the New England Patriots with a 9-7 overall record. What will be the veteran’s overall record at the end of the current season?
