Tom Brady pokes fun at New York Jets fans as New England Patriots unveil his statue in front of Gillette Stadium

Buccacio is the artist who designed the about-to-be-unveiled statue of the Patriots legend. He wanted to see Brady react when he saw himself in bronze. “I’ve spent enough time looking at it. I wanted to see what he was going to think,” said Buccacio, whom the Patriots selected over several other interested sculptors to create the project.

Tom Brady was honored on Friday night at the unveiling of his new statue at the Patriots’ Gillette Stadium. The 12-foot-tall Brady statue stands next to the Patriots Hall of Fame which the team’s legendary former quarterback was inducted into last year.
