Tom Brady jokes around on Twitter about his receiving skills

It shouldn’t surprise you to learn that New England quarterback Tom Brady has amassed 70,514 passing yards over the course of his career – the fourth-highest total in NFL history, per ProFootballReference. It might surprise you a bit more to learn that the 42-year-old finally eclipsed the 1,000-yard career rushing mark last season… even if it only took him 19 years to do so.

What probably will surprise you is that Brady actually has 65 receiving yards in his Hall of Fame career.

Now 65 yards is what Brady’s good buddy Julian Edelman racks up in a single game, but for a quarterback who rarely does anything besides throw the ball, it’s kind of a big deal.
