Let the goodbyes begin.
Thursday morning, ESPN’s Mike Reiss shared an image of a billboard thanking Tom Brady for his time in New England.
The message appears to have been put up by Robert Kraft and/or the Kraft family. It comes before Brady makes his signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers official, a move that is expected in the coming days.
Reiss later added that there are 12 total billboards scattered about. Couldn’t possibly think of a reason why.
This is likely the first of many tributes we’ll see to Brady over the coming weeks and months. The real question is, does Jarrett Stidham have to drive by this on his way to work every day?
