Expos legend Tom Brady? Former Patriots star dreams of alternate reality in new ad

Tom Brady hung up his cleats in February as the greatest quarterback to ever play the game.

But what if the Patriots legend and seven-time Super Bowl champion opted to not follow his dreams of playing pro football? It’s not as outlandish of a scenario as one might think.

A versatile athlete at Junipero Serra High in San Mateo, California, Tom Brady was actually drafted by the Montreal Expos as the 507th pick in the 18th round of the 1995 MLB Draft.

Brady wisely decided to stay the course on the gridiron and attend the University of Michigan instead of putting pen to paper on a contract in Montreal.
