After his second retirement, Tom Brady has been enjoying his post-retirement life to the fullest. The former quarterback has been enjoying some beautiful moments with his friends and family. Furthermore, he has also been spending some amazing time with his ex-teammates from the Patriots as well as the Bucs. Furthermore, Brady recently had an unofficial retirement party with arguably one of his favorite teammates, Rob Gronkowski.
The quarterback-tight end duo plastered social media with a flurry of images and videos of their celebration. However, as the pictures and videos went viral, one of Brady’s ex-teammates ended up having a very salty tweet that went viral.

While Brady, Gronk, and other Bucs’ teammates were enjoying Brady’s unofficial retirement party, some of his old teammates seemed to be hurt. One of his ex-teammates, Tristan Wirfs took to Twitter to send out a salty message. He was questioning where his invitation was for the retirement party. Admittedly, Wirfs is part of the O-line as a tackle in Tampa Bay. He was one of the reasons Brady would stay protected while throwing passes.
That’s weird, our invite to the https://t.co/FFMICIL2Kc party must have got lost in the mail @TomBrady @kokieft @TooPOC https://t.co/xWC4QEXSgp

Interestingly, the party did have ex-teammate and running back, Leonard Fournette, as well. Fournette was recently released by the Bucs. So the unofficial retirement party was taken over by only ex-Bucs players.

While Wirfs’ tweet might have had a little bit of an undertone, there hasn’t been a response from Brady or Gronk. Only time will tell if the NFL legends will have an answer for Wirfs or if they’ll ignore the call-out.
