Tom Brady wore a big hat on Thursday night, and the world took notice.
After the Patriots 10-3 preseason win over the Carolina Panthers, Tom Brady took to the post-game podium in a hat that was pretty much impossible not to comment on.
"I like the hat," a reporter said to open the presser. "Thank you," Brady replied.
"A Cam Newton special?" the reporter asked, citing Brady’s preseason opponent on the Panthers that is known for his style and once wore a strikingly similar hat.
"Yeah, he’s got a similar style," Brady said. "He wears it a little better, though."
Brady then carried on with the presser as he usually would, but on Twitter, fans were quick to come up with jokes.
Brady was in on the joke and teased an even bigger fashion update that could potentially come in the regular season.
Brady finished Thursday’s game completing eight of 12 passes for 75 yards, but fans seemed to agree that his biggest highlight was his post-game hat.
