Now that both Tom Brady and Drew Brees are league veterans and have championship rings under their belt, nothing has changed. Both QBs have complimented each other and said kind words about their achievements. Brees admitted he respects Brady, especially as the other man has accomplished a lot in his time, considered to be the greatest of all time.
Brady and Brees acknowledge that the other is a great player, with Brady even complimenting Brees for being a leader for two different teams (Chargers and Saints) despite how competitive the NFL can be. Mutual respect is nothing new for Brady, who's known for being congenial with teammates like Rob Gronkowski.
The two even make fun of their veteran status. As reported by NBC Sports, Brady posted an edited photo of him and Brees, aged up with grey beards, and standing in front of a History Channel logo to his Twitter. Brady, in fact, is the oldest player ever to throw a touchdown in the NFL playoffs. Brees reacted by retweeting the photo and said, "This is good!" Clearly, the mutual admiration society of Brady and Brees is going strong.
