Tom Brady Responds To ‘Stay Tom’ Message Drawn In Snow By Patriots Fans

Tom Brady hears you, Patriots fans.

Fearful of Brady’s potential exit in free agency, New Englanders have been doing all they can to convince the 42-year-old to re-sign with the Patriots. Most notably, Boston mayor Marty Walsh recently offered to rename the city’s two largest skyscrapers — something he might or might not have been joking about.

On a much smaller scale, a “stay Tom” message recently was drawn in snow somewhere in the Boston area (the Public Garden, maybe?). The message somehow reached Brady — perhaps he saw it in person — and the star quarterback issued a response on Instagram.

Considering Brady’s infamously calculated approach to life, there’s a good chance this post is more than some off-the-cuff addition to his Instagram story. Or, perhaps he really just wanted to show appreciation for a fan base that unconditionally adores him.

In any case, Brady is scheduled to become a free agent March 18.
