Tom Brady on Super Bowl LII Handshake Snub of Nick Foles: 'I Try to Be a Good Sport'

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady responded Thursday to continued criticism from Philadelphia Eagles fans for not shaking the hand of then-Eagles quarterback Nick Foles after the New England Patriots' 41-33 loss to Philly in Super Bowl LII.

According to ESPN's Jenna Laine, Brady said he was not aware of how big of a deal the snub was to Eagles fans before, adding: "I've shaken Nick's hand plenty of times, though. I've got a lot of respect for Nick."

Brady also said: "I try to be a good sport as best as I can. I know it doesn't always look like that because sometimes I get a little pissed out there, but for the most part, I try to be a good sport.
