Brady answers Eli’s Wrexham dig with SB brag

Sep 14, 2024, 10:57 AM ET

Tom Brady responded to his former NFL rival Eli Manning joining Wrexham’s supporter base ahead of the Welsh team’s game against Birmingham City on Monday with a boast about his Super Bowl success.

Brady, who has a 3.3% stake in Birmingham, was called out by Manning on Friday, with the former New York Giants quarterback being drafted in by Wrexham’s co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, according to an official club announcement.

Manning commented on the post, saying: “Now I can beat @tombrady in football and fútbol! Go @wrexham_afc!”

Brady replied with a video shared to his official X account where he is seen brandishing a Super Bowl trophy and addressed McElhenney directly.

“I’ve been working on a little response video to Eli and I was looking around the house but I can’t find the other six of these [trophies].

“Rob, can you just educate the Wrexham fans just a little bit on the history of the NFL? Thanks bud, I’ll see you Monday.”
