Cancer:
“Tom Brady Helped Me Beat Brain Cancer,” it read.
Brady has more touchdown passes (600), victories (236), Super Bowl rings (seven) and Super Bowl MVP awards (five) than any quarterback in NFL history.
But help a boy beat brain cancer?
How?
The answer began to unfold in March outside a two-story, stucco house with a well-kept lawn in Highland, Utah.
A 9-year-old boy and his mother sat in a car parked in the driveway.
Fan:
Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan Byron Kennedy handed Tom Brady’s 600th touchdown ball back to team staff after wide receiver Mike Evans mistakenly gave the historic ball away, but even Brady believes Kennedy should’ve held out a little longer.
During an appearance on the “Monday Night Football” simulcast with brothers Peyton and Eli Manning, Brady said there were “a lot of negotiations” to get the ball back but noted that Kennedy “should’ve held it” a little longer in order to get a bit more from the Bucs.
Ball: Tom Brady
“Byron realized he lost all of his leverage once he gave the ball away,” Brady said. “He should’ve held it to get as much leverage as possible.”
“Amateur move,” Peyton Manning said in agreement. “If he would’ve held it, he would’ve been sitting in the Tom Brady suite for the rest of the season. Amateur move on his part.”
Eli Manning vs record:
Eli Manning and Tom Brady were among the NFL’s best rivalries. Of course, Tom Brady is still playing in the league at 44 years old and Eli retired back in January of 2020 at the age of 39.
That doesn’t mean that the rivalry between Brady and Eli Manning has faded. If it had not been for Eli Manning and the New York Giants, Tom Brady would currently have 9 Super Bowl rings versus the 7 that he currently has.
600 touchdowns:
According to ESPN, Kennedy received two signed Brady jerseys, a helmet, a signed Evans jersey, a pair of his game cleats, $1,000 credit at the team store and two season tickets for the remainder of the 2021 season and for the 2022 season.
When asked during an interview on NFL Network if he’d like to renegotiate with the Bucs and Brady, Kennedy said he wouldn’t but had one further request.
