Tom Brady has played forever. And despite his long and exceptional career, the New England Patriots’ great quarterback has been throwing Pick-Sixes at the rate of less than one a season.
Former Patriot teammate Eric Rowe added another to the category for Brady on Sunday when he picked off a pass intended for Julian Edelman and took it to paydirt in the second quarter of the Dolphins’ game with the Patriots.

Rowe is a two-time Super Bowl champ, having played with the Patriots from 2016-18.
This was the 14th Pick-Six Brady has thrown in his career. It puts him in a tie for 29th with Matt Schaub, Mark Brunell, Andy Dalton, Joey Harrington and Dandy Don Meredith. It was his first Pick-Six since 2017.
