Just because Victor Thompsonβs life is on hold as he awaits trial on drug charges, doesnβt mean he canβt plan for the future.
So, what is the serious New England Patriots fanβs next move?
Heβs hoping to finish up the Tom Brady helmet he has tattooed on his head with a facemask, eye black and perhaps even a signature from the star quarterback himself, according to Fox News.

Thompson has made headlines off and onΒ since he began a journey to have Bradyβs helmet tattooed on his head. Back in his native New Hampshire, he made the news, managed to get shown in a commercial and was even able to snag Randy Mossβ signature on his head, which he had a tattoo artist go over to make permanent.
The elaborate tattoo currently includes the Patβs logo, the Lombardi Trophy, the Riddell logo, Mossβ John Hancock and a green dot that indicates wireless communication. But, itβs far from finished, Thompson says.

βIβd like to get Brady and (head coach Bill) Belichick to sign my head, really,β he told Fox during a recent jailhouse interview.
Thompson was jailed Sept. 10 after St. Petersburg Police found him in possession of βMaster Kushβ spice. The synthetic drug is illegal in Florida.
Thompson came to St. Petersburg following the death of his wife, Barbara, and had only been in the area a short time before his arrest.
As for when that tattoo might be completed, itβs unclear. He remained in the Pinellas County Jail Wednesday in lieu of $1,500 bond on a charge of possession of a hallucinogenic substance.
