The legend of Tom Brady is still going strong in 2020, almost 20 years after he was drafted by Bill Belichick’s New England Patriots.

As the story goes, Brady was the last quarterback to be drafted that year at #199. In fact, when he arrived in Boston, he was the fourth-choice QB behind the legendary Drew Bledsoe and backups, John Friesz and Michael Bishop.

It wasn’t until the 2001 season that Brady made his professional debut for the Patriots and the rest, as they say, is history. Brady, alongside Bill Belichick, established a dynasty in New England, winning 6 Super Bowl trophies and shattering numerous individual and collective NFL records.

As the GOAT gets ready for another crunch NFL encounter tonight, let’s take a look at this video featuring Indianapolis Colts legend Peyton Manning.

Brady gives an invaluable piece of advice to budding NFL prospects who are looking to make a name for themselves in the world of football.

“I don’t give a s**t if you’re a first-round pick, I was 199. But listen, if you get a chance to be on the field, don’t mess it up because you may never get a second one,” Brady said on an episode of Peyton’s Places.

The 43-year-old veteran is having a ball with former Patriots teammate Rob Gronkowski in Florida. Bruce Arians’ Tampa Bay Buccaneers stand on a 5-2 record as of Week 8.

They play the New York Giants on Monday night; a win against the Giants will cement the Buccaneers’ position at the top of the NFC South Division table over their rivals, New Orleans Saints.
