Tom Brady is pretty sure someone stole his Super Bowl jersey
If Tom Brady looked a little deflated after his team's comeback Super Bowl win, it's probably because the jersey he wore during the game is nowhere to be found.
USA Today reports Brady "looked flustered" as he rummaged through his locker inside Houston's NRG Stadium following the game. "It was right here," he said of the elusive top. "I know exactly where I put it." He summoned security and team equipment managers, and soon his teammates also joined the search for Brady's No. 12 jersey, but to no avail. "This is not good," he said. "It was right here and now I don't have it. Not good."
On the way out of the stadium, Brady confirmed to USA Today he was leaving without the jersey. While most Super Bowl champs head to Disneyland after their big win, it looks like Brady is off to the lost and found — then eBay.
