Patriots unveil statue of Tom Brady outside stadium: 'This statue isn't just for Pats fans'
Legendary quarterback Tom Brady and Fox News contributor Jim Gray share a look at a new museum in Las Vegas showcasing ‘extraordinary’ legacies on ‘Fox News @ Night.’
Retired NFL quarterback Tom Brady returned Friday to Foxborough, Massachusetts, the place where he spent two decades of his storied career.
Brady was on hand for a statue-unveiling ceremony before the New England Patriots opened their 2025 preseason slate, dropping the curtain on a 12-foot bronze statue in Brady's likeness.
The statue honoring the seven-time Super Bowl winner was placed near the entrance of the team's Hall of Fame at Patriot Place, which sits just beyond Gillette Stadium's entry gates.

Brady became the first player in franchise history to be honored with a statue. Longtime Patriots team owner Robert Kraft commissioned the sculpture.
"Tommy, you have not only etched your name in NFL history. You’ve etched it in all our hearts," Kraft said in remarks during the ceremony. "And now your likeness will forever stand tall here at Gillette Stadium, just like you did — standing tall, poised and laser-focused. People may forget what’s said tonight, but may this statue forever remind us what Tom Brady did and how he made us all feel."
