Tom Brady trades young fan his rookie card worth $1K for Eagles jersey: 'Keep that card for a while'

Tom Brady appeared at a hobby event in New Jersey and traded his own rookie card away.

One lucky NFL fan had the trade of a lifetime with NFL legend Tom Brady that resulted in him landing a $1,000 Brady rookie sports card this past Saturday. 

Brady was among an All-Star group of athletes and celebrities who participated in Fanatics’ first "Topps Hobby Rip Night," which had sports card and memorabilia hobbyists travel to local hobby shops across the country to meet some of the biggest names in the world while getting some awesome opportunities to snag some new rare cards.

Brady was joined by Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin at Wax, Packs and Throwbacks in Linwood, New Jersey, where they interacted with kids and handed out some great trading cards from Brady’s NFL life. Those included cards of wide receivers Wes Welker and Mike Evans as well as tight end Rob Gronkowski.

But Brady had one of his coveted rookie cards, worth $1,000 he says, that he wanted to give a young fan for a price. Brady wanted his DeVonta Smith Philadelphia Eagles jersey. 

The kid wasted no time taking the jersey off his back and handing it to Brady, who then gave him the card.

"This is a $1,000 card right there," Brady said to the fan. " . . . Keep that card for a while."

Trading cards like that only age financially with time, so it’s good advice from the seven-time Super Bowl champion.
