NFL great Tom Brady has described himself as a "Reputation guy" as he spoke in glowing terms about Taylor Swift after attending her concert with his sons.
The pop superstar is into the final leg of her worldwide "Eras Tour", with her show at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium attracting an ensemble of A-Listers. Tennis legend Serena Williams was present alongside her daughter Olympia, as Miami Dolphins ace Braxton Berrios attended, as did the Kelce family.
Seven-time Super Bowl victor Brady enjoyed a memorable evening in Florida, as he was joined by his boys John "Jack" Edward Thomas, and Benjamin Rein too watch Swift perform. Taking to Instagram, the ex-New England Patriots quarterback posted snaps of himself alongside his sons as they listened to the hitmaker sing her track, "Ready for It?".
Clearly impressed with the show put on by the chart-topper, the retired football legend paid tribute to the performer in the caption of his post too. Unable to resist the opportunity to make a Swift-based pun, he wrote: "The gang does @taylorswift. "I think I learned I’m a Reputation guy."
The pictures proved popular with Brady's 15 millions too, with fans taking to the comments section, as one enthusiast said: "Real men go to Taylor Swift concerts," as another added: "I love that you did this with your guys! Can we normalize guys also liking Taylor Swift please."
Meanwhile, a third urged the NFL icon to take to the mic at some point himself, suggesting: We all need Reputation Toms Version," as a fourth praised the star, saying: "I didn’t know you was a swiftie that makes me love you even more," while another added: "Swifties!!! Love it boys!"
Either way, it was claimed that the retired QB contacted Swift's boyfriend Travis Kelce for some advice after assuming his new role as lead NFL analyst for Fox Sports. A source informed Life & Style: "He's gently quizzed Travis for tips on how to be quick on his feet and keep the commentary exciting for fans.
"'It's about showmanship and Tom knows it. You gotta hand it to Tom – he knows when he needs help and he knows exactly where to go to ask for it.
They added: "The goal in Tom's first year on the air at Fox is to not embarrass himself and to not blow the handful of very big blockbuster games he'll be broadcasting this year. Nobody is pretending there isn't a steep learning curve when it comes to getting good on the air, live in front of millions of fans."
