Tom Brady still has to wait a few years before he can wear a gold jacket. He'll be in bronze this summer, though.
The New England Patriots announced Thursday that they will unveil a Brady statue at Gillette Stadium on Aug. 8 before their preseason game against the Washington Commanders.
While Brady finished his storybook career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, even claiming his seventh and final Super Bowl victory with the NFC South club, he spent 20 of his 23 seasons in the NFL with the Patriots.
New England famously selected Brady out of Michigan with the 199th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft.
