Tom Brady played in nine career Super Bowls before Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs. He accomplished a shocking career-first during his Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ game against K.C.
Brady threw a touchdown pass to Rob Gronkowski near the end of the first quarter of Super Bowl LV. That marked the first time in his career that Brady led a touchdown drive in the first quarter of a Super Bowl.
ESPN also says it was the first time Brady’s team held a lead in the first quarter of the Super Bowl.
As if all that weren’t enough, that was the fourth time Brady threw a touchdown pass to Gronk in the Super Bowl. That ties them with Joe Montana and Jerry Rice for the most ever by a duo.
