How the rest of the NFL reacted to Tom Brady leaving the Patriots

The NFL will no longer see Tom Brady suit up in red, silver and nautical blue.

The free agent quarterback announced on Tuesday via social media that he will be leaving the Patriots and ending his 20-year long reign in New England with head coach Bill Belichick. Their player-coach duo was considered one of the greatest in sports history, as the Patriots dominated in the postseason and won six Super Bowls.

This will be the first time the sports world will see Brady, in his own words, go “elsewhere”. Here’s how NFL players — current and former — are reacting to the news:

Lonie Paxton:

Deion Sanders:

Demaryius Thomas

Stevan Ridley:

Deshaun Watson:

Man this is crazy!
