“When [Jack] came down and gave me a hug, that was probably one of the greatest days of my life,” Brady said in the clip, published on Friday, Nov. 8.

The scene Brady described then played. Brady headed to the sidelines to ask security, “Can I say ‘Hi’ to my son?” Jack quickly came down to hug his dad.

“How about that? We’re gonna go to the Super Bowl,” he told Jack, who was 15 at the time. “What do you think? I love you, man. Way to go. I’ll see you. I’ll call you a little bit later.”

“Alright, love you,” replied Jack, with Brady adding, “Love you, kiddo.”

In October 2022, Bradyopened up about watching Jack play quarterbackon his high school football team.

“I love watching him play quarterback because I think there’s very few things in life that I could probably help him with,” Brady said. “You know, I don’t have a lot of specialties in life other than probably throwing the football.”

“He’s way smarter. He’s got a great work ethic,” Brady added. “He’s just a great kid. But I can definitely help him at quarterback.”

In April 2024, Brady shared thatJack is “an amazing young man.”

“Straight A’s. Handles himself so well in groups of people and I see him and he’s 16, and I’m like how are you so mature," Brady said. “[He] lives in New York City, puts his heart and soul into everything he does. I mean he just, he blows me away with who he is.”
