Anthony Richardson meets with Tom Brady, other QB draftees
Mere weeks ago, former Florida Gator quarterback Anthony Richardson was taken No. 4 overall by the Indianapolis Colts in the 2023 NFL Draft. As if things couldn’t be more surreal for the Florida native, he’s now sharing a dinner table with NFL legend Tom Brady and rapper Travis Scott.
In a meeting held on Thursday, Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin invited the first four quarterback draftees to his Los Angeles home to talk branding with NFL legend Tom Brady and rapper Travis Scott. First-overall pick Bryce Young, CJ Shroud and Will Levis flanked Richardson as the first NFLPA rookie meetings went on.
Brady speaks to quarterbacks, Richardson
Behind a decorated NFL career, Brady is spending his days relaxing and informing rookies on how to make it on Sundays.
The seven-time Lombardi Trophy winner explained its not about where you start, but about how you finish.
“Going in the second round, in the end, it is not that big of a deal. Going first overall, in the end, it is not a big deal. It is great, you got opportunity, you’ll get paid more than anyone for a time period, but I was drafted 199,” Brady told the quarterbacks.
“I just outlasted everybody. There’s another me back there, so how do I keep my edge on everybody? I had to keep working. I didn’t go ‘Hey, I’m good; I won three Super Bowls, I’m good.’”
Deiric Jackson, Richardson’s mentor and agent, commented on the experience on his Instagram.
“It’s not often you get a chance to talk to one of the best to ever do it! Tom Brady appreciate the wise words of wisdom you shared with Anthony! Also want to thank Travis Scott, great dude! I appreciate everything you guys shared and look forward to meeting back up with both you guys soon.”
