Tom Brady tried to trip Malik Hooker on Monday night. He said so himself on the latest episode of the Let’s Go! Podcast with Jim Gray.

But, his attempt missed.

Brady said he tried to tackle Hooker first, but was unable to make the play.

“And I wasn’t gonna try to stick my arm out. I was trying to get him on the ground,” Brady said. “I missed him completely. I didn’t even hit him. I tried to trip him, but I didn’t. I don’t know how you can get fined for something that didn’t even happen.
