The NFL legend shared some thoughts during New York's game against the Cowboys on Thanksgiving.
"I don't know how the whole situation went down, but to think that you would ask for release from a team that committed a lot to you is maybe different than I would have handled that," Brady said during the broadcast. "I always felt I wanted to get the trust and respect of my teammates regardless of situation, knowing that I was trying to be the best I could for the team because that was the most important thing.
"There's just some different things that happen in the NFL, and everyone makes individual choices and I think all, at points in our career, face different challenges. I faced them in college, and some things didn't go the way I wanted, but the people that mattered the most to me were the guys in the locker room. I showed up every day. I don't care if they asked me to be scout team safety, be scout team quarterback. I was gonna do whatever I could to help the team win.
