Tom Brady and Josh Allen bump fists as NFL quarterbacks past and present collide in a foursome on day one of the PGA Tour’s Pebble Beach Pro-Am

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen and NFL legend Tom Brady enjoyed a round of golf together on the first day of PGA Tour’s Pebble Beach Pro-Am.

The two superstar signal callers were paired together in a group of four, with Brady playing alongside Keegan Bradley and Allen teaming up with Keith Mitchell, and at one stage of the competition they bumped fists.

This year’s tournament offers a $20 million cash prize for the eventual winner.

In the lead up to the event, the PGA announced the respective handicaps of the participating amateur stars, some of which may come as a surprise.

A handicap is a numerical score that measures a golfer’s skills and helps to level the playing field between golfers of different skill levels. It represents the number of shots a golfer is expected to take over or under par on a given course.

For example, Brady has a handicap of eight. More surprising, however, is Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ handicap of four, which is dramatically different from 2023, when the four-time NFL MVP won the event with a presumed handicap of 10.

Rodgers and teammate Ben Silverman finished at a whopping 26 under that year and won by one shot.

Meanwhile, Bills’ Allen and retired two-time NBA champion Pau Gasol have handicaps of nine and 10, respectively.

As for the other pairings, Beau Hossler played alongside Rodgers, while Emiliano Grillo teamed with Gasol.

A year ago, Allen’s partner Mitchell called Rodgers’ 10 handicap “nonsense.”

“I think Josh (Allen) and I won. Aaron Rodgers doesn’t count,” Mitchell said. ‘His disability was c**p.

‘I didn’t look. I think so, on 18 we might have been there. But if we come second to Aaron, I’ll consider us winning the trophy.”

Among the amateurs also plays Dr. Neal Elattrache, the surgeon who repaired Rodgers’ torn Achilles tendon last year.
