“For your mom, bro,” were the words New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman told quarterback Tom Brady during the team's historic comeback in Super Bowl LI. Brady's mother Gaylinn had been undergoing cancer treatment for the past few months and was in the stands alongside her family to witness the Patriots' 34-28 victory; the first time all season she was able to make it to a game.
On Sunday morning, Gaylinn and her husband Tom Sr. recapped the journey to the Super Bowl as well as the experience at the game in an emotional interview with NFL Network's Andrea Kramer.
