Tom Brady and Peyton Manning have shared plenty of moments together both on the field and off the field and now that both have encountered and taken television roles, the winningest quarterback in the history of the league shared and interesting advice.
This advice was given to him by Manning before their they retired and Tom has how shared it with everyone else. “I met with Peyton Manning for like three days, and he taught me the play that he used to run a lot,” Brady said in a video he posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“We ended up installing the play in our offense, and we got Rob Gronkowski. It ended up, probably half of Gronk’s receiving yards were on this concept. I’m like, ‘Thanks, Peyton!'”
The play that he shared
The play that they discussed would put Tom Brady on a play action that would attract the linebackers towards the line of scrimmage thinking run and then it would free Rob Gronkowski down the seam.
The tight end would be wide open in the middle of the field for the quarterback to hit him. Interesting enough, it was Peyton Manning that showed to Tom for their success for many years.
So when people put it in perspective, if it weren’t for Peyton, Tom might have ever found success with Gronkowski in the passing game, as everyone remembers his great plays.
