The Patriots released a video on the team’s X account Thursday, announcing that a statue of legendary quarterback Tom Brady will be unveiled at Gillette Stadium on August 8th.
The ceremony will be held before New England’s preseason opener against the Washington Commanders. The game is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
The video included highlights from Brady’s two-decade long stint with the franchise and a clips from his Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony, which took place last June.
Plans for the statue were announced by team owner Robert Kraft at Brady’s Patriots Hall-of-Fame ceremony last year.
