Tom Brady to be inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame
Tom Brady will be enshrined into the Patriots Hall of Fame next season.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft announced that the team will waive the usual four-year waiting period for the team’s best player of all-time.
He will be inducted next summer on June 6, 2024.
Brady spent 20 years in New England before spending his last three in Tampa Bay. He won six Super Bowl champions, he threw for 74,571 yards and 541 touchdowns and racked up a 219-64 record with New England.
Brady retired from professional football this offseason and the three-time NFL MVP declared himself a “Patriot for life.”
During halftime on Sunday, the team honored Brady in a ceremony on field.
“That run out was a little longer today than it used to be – I’m not quite in game shape but it’s impossible for me to be in this stadium, full of you amazing fans, with some of the best teammates, with my family and all my friends, and not run out like I did for 20 years,” Brady told the New England crowd as he received an effusive reception from the crowd.
“I was so fortunate to be drafted here two decades ago – 23 years to be exact – not even knowing where New England was on the map and not that we put it on the map, but I think a lot more people in the US know where the New England Patriots play.”
Brady will be honored in a huge celebration next summer, one he is excited to see happen.
“All our lives take us on different journeys, they take us to different places, they bring different people into our lives but one thing I am sure of and that will never change is that I am a Patriot for life,” said Brady.
