Former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady reminisced about a moment that occurred after the 2018 AFC Championship Game between the Patriots and Kansas City Chiefs. Brady and the Patriots came away with the victory. The legendary quarterback went 30-of-46 on the evening, throwing for 346 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions.

The Raiders didn’t simply forget to interview Mike Vrabel before he landed with the Patriots. Vrabel told his former Patriots teammate Tom Brady — who owns a minority stake in the Raiders — that he probably was going to end up back in New England, according to an NFL Network report.

While Bill Belichick elevated Tom Brady on the field, the quarterback’s work ethic also helped bring arguably the NFL’s greatest coach to another level.
