Patriots Post Pic Of Tom Brady's Jersey On Instagram As NFL Draft Begins
BOSTON (CBS) -- The New England Patriots have really upped their social media game.
The Patriots don't have a first-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, thanks to commissioner Roger Goodell and his punishment for the DeflateGate. They won't have quarterback Tom Brady for the first four games of the season either, but the team sent a pretty clear message as the Draft got underway Thursday night.
As the 31 other NFL teams got ready to make their picks in Chicago, the Patriots sent out the following post on their Instagram account supporting their quarterback:
The team also posted the picture to their Facebook page and changed their avatar on Twitter. They also did this last summer when the NFL suspended Brady for his alleged role in the DeflateGate controversy.
No doubt about it, the Patriots will always have No. 12's back.
