Patriots QB Tom Brady Has No Issues With His Kids Playing Football
New England Patriots QB Tom Brady Stands Behind Football And Would Let His Kids Play If They Wanted Too
New England Patriots quarterback and future hall of famer Tom Brady had his weekly Monday morning interview with WEEI’s morning program Kirk and Callahan today. Brady answered a lot of questions but one of the more interesting ones was regarding allowing his kids to play football.
Brady took a pretty hard stance on the morning program and fully endorsed contact sports, even said they can teach lessons other sports can’t. A comment that will likely have a lot of fans divided, but when asked if he would let his nine year old son Jack play, Brady didn’t hesitate in saying yes.

Brady Stands Behind The Sport He Loves
Not a real shocker that Brady would answer this question this way, he is a star NFL QB and can’t really come out and bash the sport even if he wanted too. His son actually plays hockey but it would be interesting to see another Brady be a QB.
A lot of parents are divided on this topic, and the sport of football has had a major PR crisis with CTE’s and its affects on slowing the sports growth. The NFL itself has gone to great lengths at times to deny that any sort of issue even exists.
