Following the 34-28 Super Bowl win over the Atlanta Falcons, Brady could be heard in the locker room searching for his jersey. In video posted online, Brady can be seen asking around for it, telling staff that he put it in his bag, but it was no longer there.

Martin Rogers of USA Today reported that Brady looked flustered as he looked around and asked security officials and equipment managers to help find it. Other players assisted in the search, but Brady soon came to terms with the lost item, telling those nearby, “if anyone sees on eBay, a jersey for sale."
