Summary
Tom Brady, 48, has been criticized by current and former New England Patriots players for saying he doesn’t have “a dog in the fight” regarding the Super Bowl. Brady has ties to both the Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks, as he is a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders. When asked who he thinks will win the Super Bowl, Brady declined to give an answer, saying “You tell me, does anybody really know, or is it all just a guess?” Brady also posted a picture of himself and Robert Kraft on his Instagram story, captioning it “You know I got your back RKK,” which some interpreted as support for the Patriots.
