Tom Brady has gone through most of his adult life without needing a Twitter account. Despite being arguably the most well-known NFL player on the planet, he’s always been content with limiting his social media presence to Facebook and Instagram.
So it was curious to see a verified Tom Brady account spring up on Twitter at the end of March 2019. What was even more curious? Brady’s first tweet, posted in the late morning hours of April 1, 2019.
Most astute football fans – and people aware of the day’s date – were quick to comment and applaud Brady for his April Fools’ Day joke.
