The Tampa Bay Buccaneers jumped out to a 14-3 lead in Super Bowl LV thanks to a pair of former New England Patriots.

Quarterback Tom Brady found tight end Rob Gronkowski for two first-half touchdowns Sunday night, eliciting reactions from several of their ex-teammates.

After Brady and Gronkowski connected for a 17-yard score with six minutes remaining in the first half, Patriots receiver Julian Edelman and running back Damien Harris chimed in on Twitter.

Gronkowski, who caught just two total passes in Tampa Bay's first three playoff games, became just the second player in NFL history to catch multiple touchdown passes in two different Super Bowls.

A handful of other Patriots players celebrated the first Brady-Gronk connection. Brady hit wideout Antonio Brown -- another former Patriot -- for a third touchdown pass in the final seconds of the first half.

This is Brady's 10th Super Bowl appearance. The 43-year-old quarterback is seeking his seventh championship.
