Tom Brady, Jay-Z
Drop Knowledge On NFL Rookies
… At Star-Studded Luncheon
Michael Rubin
Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels and their fellow first-round draft picks might be pros now, but they ain’t done learning — soaking in some wise words from Tom Brady and Jay-Z at a luncheon over the weekend.
The Bears and Commanders top picks — as well as Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, Giants receiver Malik Nabers, Raiders tight end Brock Bowers and Broncos quarterback Bo Nix — attended the gathering held by Fanatics founder Michael Rubin … and hopefully they were taking notes, ’cause TB12, Hov and the businessman shared some serious nuggets.

“When you have 53 guys on the team, you think it’s about you — it ain’t about you, it’s about us,” Brady said during the lunch. “And the biggest problem I see with a lot of the young players today, you guys are making it too much about I and me because of social media, because of branding and all that. It’s fine. You’re not gonna win.”
“There was a difference between being a star and being a champion.”
Brady also talked about taking each practice and game like it were the Super Bowl … so when a real championship opportunity comes along, it’ll feel like a regular day.
Jay-Z added the tough moments are when people define themselves … and the youngins should make a serious effort to keep growing and adapting.
As for Rubin, his message was all about being relentless … and no matter what cards he was dealt, he didn’t let it stop him from reaching his goals.
The rooks appeared to love every second of it … and the group even posed for some pics together afterward.
Considering the trio is at the top of their respective games, we’re sure these kids took a LOT of notes.
