Tom Brady
My Statue’s Coming In August!!!
Published June 12, 2025 11:10 AM PDT
The New England Patriots just announced Tom Brady‘s statue will be erected outside Gillette Stadium ahead of their first preseason game in August … with the organization planning a special ceremony to promote the 12-foot tribute.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft initially shared the plans for the bronze Brady during his Patriots Hall of Fame ceremony last year — the same night the 47-year-old quarterback’s No. 12 was retired.
Kraft said the statue would “perpetuate the legendary legacy of this once-in-a-lifetime player” … and a local artist had already been commissioned for the gig.
Now, fans have an official date to circle on their calendars — August 8 … the same day the Pats host the Washington Commanders for a preseason matchup.

The unveiling was initially projected to happen during the 2024 season … but Brady found himself busier than expected as he started his $375 million broadcasting career with Fox Sports.
Brady is widely regarded as the greatest quarterback to ever take a snap … so a statue in his honor is the ultimate no-brainer.
His 20-year career in New England was nothing short of dominant … with six Super Bowl championships in nine appearances — and he added another ring with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2021 for good measure.
He also shattered numerous NFL records while on his path to greatness … including most passing yards (89,214), most passing touchdowns (649) and most Super Bowl wins (7) — just to name a few.
Fans in Foxborough will certainly have a new photo op next time they head to 1 Patriot Place … but here’s hoping TB12 doesn’t get the Dwyane Wade treatment.
