Jacoby Brissett led his Cleveland Browns to a win over one of his former teammates on Sunday and he did it in dramatic fashion by pulling out a 23-17 victory that wasn’t decided until the final minutes of overtime.
Who was that former teammate? Tom Brady, of course. Brissett played for the Patriots in 2016 and was a part of the team that came back to beat the Atlanta Falcons in the Super Bowl.
Brissett, who won a game as a starter for that Patriots team while Brady was out due to suspension, had some fun after Sunday’s win, stealing Brady’s line that he used after a recent win over the Rams.
This has a bad word in it so if that is not your thing then run away right now:

That’s some fun stuff right there by Brissett, who will unfortunately lose his starting job this week when Deshaun Watson comes back from suspension.
Brissett and Brady shared a special moment after the game:
