Tom Brady and Micah Parsons finally had their long-awaited jersey moment.
The two NFL stars crossed paths at the Fanatics Fest over the weekend, where things got playful during a chat that turned into a mini standoff over a signed No. 12 jersey. Micah Parsons, who’s been asking for one, wasn’t letting the opportunity pass.
On Wednesday, his persistence finally paid off. Parsons shared the moment he received the jersey on Instagram, calling it a “special delivery.” Brady saw the post and re-shared it on his own story with a simple message: “LFG @_micahparsons11.”
The Cowboys linebacker and the seven-time Super Bowl champ have faced off on the field, but this time, Parsons confronted Brady about something else: a missing jersey he says he never got.
In a video from Fanatics Fest, Brady turned to his team and asked, “Have we signed one for Micah and sent one his way? A jersey?” His crew insisted it had already been handled.
Parsons wasn’t buying it.
“No, you’re lying. I’ve never gotten a jersey. I wouldn’t lie to you,” he told Brady. Then, looking Brady in the eye, he added: “I just want a jersey, bro. Put it in my house.”
The light-hearted exchange gave fans a glimpse of the personalities behind the helmets—two of the sport’s most competitive players sharing a genuinely funny moment.
Tom Brady Takes Top Prize at Fanatics Games
Tom Brady did more than just sign autographs over the weekend. He walked away with a $1 million win after topping the leaderboard at the inaugural Fanatics Games in New York.
Out of 100 participants—including athletes, celebs, and fans—Brady came out on top with 399.1 points. True to form, he’s giving most of it away: $5,000 to each of the 50 fans who competed, and the rest to charity.
UFC fighter Justin Gaethje came in second with 345.5 points, driving home a Ferrari 812 GTS. In third was Matt Dennish, a teacher from Pennsylvania who won a rare LeBron James rookie card—Topps Chrome Gold Refractor, numbered to 50 and graded 9.5 by Beckett.
Dennish later sold the card to Brady for $250,000, plus a signed jersey and card from the future Hall of Famer. Not a bad weekend for anyone involved.
