Tom Brady Talks Adversity In Commencement Speech To CT Students
Tom Brady, now playing for Tampa Bay, played a huge role for the graduating students of the Forman School this weekend.

LITCHFIELD, CT — Tom Brady may have taken his talents to Tampa Bay, but his words are making an impact for the 2020 graduating class at the Forman School, which educates students with learning disabilities such as ADHD and dyslexia.
Brady's speech, first shared with the Boston Globe, opened by noting, "it's obviously a little bit of a different time for all of us, you have a virtual ceremony happenin."
He continued, "We've all had our difficult times overcoming different adversities and challenges that we're facing, and this one is no different. I think what you understand, when you're going through things like this, you learn from them, and you make the best of them. And Forman has taught you guys all of that."
