The New England Patriots are being sued by a fan who claims they ruined an American flag autographed by Tom Brady.
Per the lawsuit obtained by TMZ Sports, Daniel Vitale said he acquired the flag signed by the seven-time Super Bowl champion in early 2020 and at some point last year he reached out to the Pro Football Hall of Fame to gauge their interest in displaying it.
According to the suit, the HOF said it did after Brady and Patriots head coach Bill Belichick retired.
"The HOF, according to Vitale, suggested he reach out to the Patriots Hall of Fame at Gillette Stadium to gauge its interest in the flag in the meantime," TMZ wrote.
