Tom Brady will never cease to be an entertainer, and he was the same with the supposed “Madden Cover Curse”, starring in a hilarious skit with Patrick Mahomes.

The Madden curse is something that has plagued athletes throughout the history of the Madden franchise. It has led to injuries, massive drops in performances, and sometimes it can be career ending.
Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes have both been on the Madden cover before. However, the curse has evaded them. Brady won an MVP the year after and made the Super Bowl while Patrick Mahomes won the Super Bowl the year after.
In fact, the last time Brady was on the cover of Madden he released this video:
That should give you a fair idea as to how Brady responded when he was on the cover of Madden once more.

Yep, we can imagine how difficult it must’ve been to maintain your Twitter presence with that bubble on Brady, we see you. As always, Brady’s social media never fails to deliver. His mockery of the Madden curse is also sending a bigger message.
It means he’s going to be back on the football field, slinging it around like we’re always used to saying. Brady has repeatedly said that the Bucs never truly found their groove last year, and that this year they’ll be way better. After laughing in the face of the Madden curse, we’ll have to see just how much better him and the Bucs will be.
