It would come as no surprise if Tom Brady were to receive his third MVP title after another great season. However, the league would certainly not want to announce this until the official MVP award ceremony on Saturday. At the New England Patriots press conference on Thursday, however, an MVP acceptance speech for Brady was seen. Is the secret uncovered?
After the Patriots press conference on Thursday, a picture was posted on Twitter with a possible Patriots staff member holding a document titled “Brady Acceptance Speech”. The award will be officially presented during the night from Saturday to Sunday at 3am.
In any case, Brady was already regarded by bookmakers as a big favorite for the title. He tossed this season for 4,577 yards and 32 touchdowns as well as 8 interceptions. The biggest competitor in the election is Rams-Running-Back Todd Gurley.
With a third MVP award Brady would draw level with Jim Brown, Brett Favre and Johnny Unitas. Only Peyton Manning was able to collect more during his career (5).
