NFL legend Tom Brady once labeled Michael Jordan as “The real GOAT” over other NBA stars

Tom Brady is considered one of the greatest football players of all time. However, the legendary quarterback believes that there is one athlete who reigns supreme as the true “GOAT”: NBA icon Michael Jordan. Brady’s accolades in the NFL are second to none, but he has openly stated that he believes that Jordan is the greatest athlete of all time.

Brady’s career began in 2000 when he joined the New England Patriots as a backup quarterback. However, he went on to lead the team to six Super Bowl victories and establish himself as one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. Even after moving to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Brady continued to thrive, leading the team to another Super Bowl victory in his first season with them.

Brady’s admiration for Jordan was on full display last year when the two athletes met at the inaugural Miami Grand Prix. The pair were seen hugging and chatting, and Brady even posted a video of the encounter on social media with the caption “The Real GOAT.” Although Brady has seven Super Bowl titles to his name, he believes that Jordan’s legacy as a basketball player is unmatched.

While Brady and Jordan have comparable statistics in terms of championship victories, Jordan has an advantage in MVP honors. Jordan was named the league MVP five times during his career, while Brady has been named MVP three times. Jordan also became the first athlete to become a billionaire, while Brady consistently took discounted deals to help his team sign more talented players.

Despite a tough 2022 season, Brady demonstrated his leadership skills by guiding his team to the playoffs. He is set to begin a broadcasting career with a $375 million deal with FOX in 2024, and many sports fans are eager to see him and Jordan discuss their respective GOAT statuses during a broadcast. While this may seem like a pipe dream, anything is possible in the world of sports.
