Tom Brady wants all quarterbacks to at least get a taste of what he experienced when he entered the NFL in 2000. That include the man the New England Patriots hope will become their first franchise quarterback since Brady — Drake Maye.
Brady was asked if his former team made the right call starting Jacoby Brissett over Maye during new FOX NFL analyst's appearance on "The Herd" Tuesday ahead of making his broadcasting debut on "America's Game of The Week" between the Dallas Cowboys and Cleveland Browns on Sunday.
Brady believes his former teammate, new Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo, made the correct decision. "I've gone on record, in my opinion, that I think it's best that young quarterbacks, or rookie quarterbacks, watch a veteran do it," Brady said. "There's so much that goes on and quarterbacks need to process so much information so quickly.
I think if you can have someone [to learn from] — and I sat behind Drew Bledsoe my first year — what a great player he was, someone that I got to watch and learn from.
