Thousands of fans gathered in Foxborough Monday morning to send the Patriots off in style ahead of the franchise’s record ninth Super Bowl appearance.
“This journey started off at training camp, well it started long before that, but I know a lot of you fans were out there at our training camp practices. We had 20,000 people out there at practice when we started and it looks like we’re getting up there today,” Brady said.
Matthew Slater echoed his quarterback’s sentiments and promised Patriots nation will be well represented in Houston.
“We’re taking a team down here to Houston that you guys can all be proud of,” Slater said. “This is a close-knit group, we love playing for one another and we love representing this city, this town, this region.”
But before departing for Houston, Brady reminded the fans to do their job.
“It’s been a great season and we’ve accomplished a lot, but we still got one more to go,” Brady said.
Brady had a message for the fans in attendance.
“Get your rest this week, rest up, hydrate, and get ready for Sunday,” Brady said. “It’s going be a hell of game, and hopefully, we see you back at Foxboro with a win. Go pats! Let’s go!”
