Tom Brady is the GOAT on the field — and maybe on social media, too.

While Brady spent a lot of time in his social media posts thanking Buccaneers players, fans, his family, agents and pretty much anyone and everyone else that made his career special, there was a very obvious and curious omission.

Brady won six Super Bowls with the Patriots before heading to Tampa Bay in 2020 and winning a seventh.
