The New England Patriots won six Super Bowl titles when Tom Brady was there quarterback, and they also lost three of them. However, many people feel like Brady is the greatest quarterback of all time in the NFL.
After he left the Patriots, he spent a couple of seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before retiring in the NFL and he also won another Super Bowl with Tampa Bay as well. With Brady being retired for a couple of years now, will he finally get a statue at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, or no?
New England Patriots Will Finally Unveil Tom Brady Statue On Friday During Preseason
Many people were wondering when the Brady statue was going to be unveiled. Well, Patriots fans are not going to have wait much longer to see it. According to various reports, it is going to be unveiled on Friday. Reuters.com said about this special day for the Patriots organization,
“The long-awaited statue of Tom Brady, delayed due to scheduling issues, finally will be unveiled Friday outside of Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.
New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft announced in June 2024 that the team would be erecting the 12-foot statue during that season. However, when Brady’s new employer, Fox Sports, changed plans to send the retired quarterback and its No. 1 broadcast team to Gillette on a game day, the statue dedication was put on hold.
Now, a short ceremony will be held Friday ahead of the Patriots’ preseason game against the Washington Commanders. Space constraints will allow only limited viewing, but the ceremony will be screened on the videoboards inside the stadium, ESPN reported. Kraft and Brady are expected to speak.”
The fact that this will be done during a preseason game is interesting. One of the reasons why this is probably the case is because of Brady broadcasting games during the regular season with FOX Sports. It is going to be interesting to see what the statue is going to look like. Brady is the greatest Patriots player of all time, and his jersey number has already been retired as well.
