On Sunday, Tom Brady, the Super Bowl-winning quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, will return to the New England Patriots’ Gillette Stadium. On Tuesday’s episode of the “Let’s Go!” podcast, he talked about his return and shared his excitement but also stated that he “wouldn’t expect a homecoming.”

He then continued, “I think they’re there to root for their team, and their team is the Patriots. And I’ll certainly have a lot of people that cheered for me over the years, I know there’ll probably be, I’ll have a lot of family there and I have a lot of friends that have wanted to go to the game…. The home crowd at Gillette is a great crowd. And I think they’re going to cheer for their team as I would expect them to.”
