On Wednesday, former New England Patriots captain and team hall of fame member Tedy Bruschi celebrated his 48th birthday.
The three-time Super Bowl champion out of the University of Arizona played 13 professional seasons with the Patriots and earned the NFL’s Comeback Player of the Year award in 2005 after a successful return to football following a stroke.
Following his football career, Bruschi has gone on to become a successful TV analyst for ESPN’s football coverage and just recently landed a senior advisory position at his alma mater University of Arizona under head coach Jedd Fisch.
Over social media Wednesday, the NFL community took time to celebrate Bruschi’s career on his birthday.
