Former NFL quarterback Tom Brady has gone viral once again after writing a priceless two-word message on a fan’s Eli Manning jersey.
Tom Brady may be the most accomplished player in NFL history with seven Super Bowl rings and five Super Bowl MVPs, along with every significant passing record (including passing yards and touchdowns), but even the GOATs have their Kryptonite.
In Brady’s case, it was none other than New York Giants legend Eli Manning, who proved to be far more than Peyton Manning’s little brother.
Eli, of course, led his Giants to stunning Super Bowl 42 and 46 wins over Brady’s dynastic New England Patriots. On both occasions, Manning threw a miraculous pass (to David Tyree and Mario Manningham) to set up a game-winning touchdown in the final minute.
Manning was named Super Bowl MVP on both occasions, cementing himself as a Giants icon while snagging permanent ownership as Tom Brady’s Kryptonite. Manning went 3-2 in head-to-head matchups with Brady.
So when a fan came up to Brady to sign his Eli Manning jersey at a Fanatics event, the GOAT took a couple of seconds to ponder his options before signing it with a message reading “F**K OFF.”

There are countless Tom Brady autographed items out there. But a personal message reading “F–K OFF”? That’s an awfully rare piece of sports memorabilia that could be worth thousands down the road, if the fan decides to sell it.
Tom Brady Concluded His First Year With Fox Sports

Before playing his final season in 2022, Brady and Fox Sports agreed to a lucrative 10-year contract worth $375 million. Brady took a year off from football-related matters in 2023 before making his long-awaited broadcast debut in September.
Brady worked alongside Fox’s top commentary team of Kevin Burkhardt and Erin Andrews. The trio called Super Bowl 59 between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles, with Jalen Hurts and company winning 40-22.

Tom Brady’s first Super Bowl appearance as a FOX broadcaster prompted some body shaming on Sunday night.
Brady called Super Bowl 59 alongside partner Kevin Burkhardt on Sunday and received plenty of compliments for a job well done, having gotten off to a bit of a slow start in the booth early in the season.
The seven-time Super Bowl winner has completed his first term with said network and, despite talk of him quitting to focus on his ownership with the Raiders, has insisted he’s looking forward to seeing out his 10-year deal.
While he received an A+ for his on-air delivery, the former Patriots and Buccaneers quarterback was criticized over his looks, with users on social media accusing him of modifying his face via artificial means.
“Can someone please check on the athlete formerly known as Tom Brady? Please lay off the Botox and Facelifts champ. You are starting to look like Max Headroom,” one wrote.

“Tom Brady looks like he’s been bit by a zombie and is mid-conversion to the walking dead…” someone else wrote.
“Tom Brady has the cheeks of a man who looks like he invented cocaine,” joked a third.
Tom Brady Had An Eventful First Super Bowl
Tom Brady does have one of the most impressive jawlines in sports, which admittedly wasn’t always the case. But it’s also worth noting that the 47-year-old maintains a strict diet and has a long list of things he does not eat, which could be the reason for his bony face.
He won’t be jawing back at fans, but Kevin Hart doesn’t fall into that category entirely and was fair game for the former superstar QB, who fired a jab at the comedian over his diminutive stature during the game on Sunday.
“Kevin Hart’s here,” he said on air. “How do the cameras find Kevin Hart?”
Still, Nick Foles had the last laugh after watching his old team win their second Super Bowl, taking a brutal shot at Brady as he suggested the FOX commentator must be a good luck charm for the Eagles as they’re 2-0 in Super Bowls with him around.
