A unique way to respond to fans

Further explaining his reasoning behind his decision, Brady explained that this was his way of connecting better with his fans.

“What this is, it’s a tool that will allow me to communicate more directly with my fans… where we can actually do a better job of responding to you, your questions, and all the great messages.”

Throwing some shade at Jets fans due to his 20-year spell with the New England Patriots, Brady said that a certain sort of message will not be received well.

“Sometimes it gets hard to sort through the ‘You suck, Brady’ in the comments… It’s usually from the Jet fans, but to be clear, if you do text me, ‘You suck,’ yes, I’ll see it, and I may or may not respond. So, shoot me a message. I promise I’m going to get back to as many of you guys as possible,” the Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB said.

So go ahead, what’re you waiting for? If you ever want to talk to a seven-time Super Bowl champion, now’s the chance.
