Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed admiration for New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady — and the feeling may be mutual.
“Tom wants to make American great again,” Barstool Sports writer John Feitelberg tweetedSaturday alongside an image of what is apparently Brady’s locker. Inside it is a red baseball cap with Trump’s campaign slogan.
Trump has repeatedly appeared in public wearing a similar hat.
The outspoken billionaire lauded Brady this week after a federal judge overturned the NFL’s four-game suspension of Brady.
“Congrats to Tom Brady on yet another great victory,” Trump tweeted Thursday. “Tom is my friend and a total winner!”
U.S. District Court Judge Richard Berman on Thursday said the football league’s penalty against Brady lacks significant legal standing.
Brady has repeatedly insisted he is innocent of a conspiracy to deflate footballs during a pivotal playoff game last season.
