Tom Brady will enter the Hall of Fame as a quarterback, but he showed off his defensive abilities at a Fanatics event on Tuesday.
Brady was one of several professional athletes to participate in the company’s Merch Madness giveaway, which more than 100,000 underserved families claimed benefited Fox business.
With the initiative taking place in 30 cities across the country, Brady came to the event in Miami, Florida – along with Odell Beckham Jr. and DJ Khaled – and found himself defending one of the kids.
Brady played a light defense on his opponent, but charged when the ball bounced off her, then jokingly juke it on another kid.
There were also plenty of big names in New York.
