You don't see that every day!

Future Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady, widely regarded as the greatest player in the history of the National Football League, is attempting to win his 8th Super Bowl this season. Despite an 8-9 record, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are in the postseason and will be taking on the Dallas Cowboys.
For Brady, who has already accomplished virtually everything there is to at the NFL level, certainly didn't appear set up for that kind of success at his debut performance in the NFL combine in which he ran a 5.28 second 40-yard dash.
And according to Hall of Famer and current analyst Troy Aikman, Brady certainly doesn't owe his success to being an overly athletic kind of player.
"I kid him about it — he’s the most unathletic quarterback in the game," Aikman told the "Sports Illustrated Media Podcast" this week. "I’m 56 years old, and I’m pretty confident I can outrun him in the 40-yard dash."
"He’ll get the ball out, he doesn’t create negative plays and that's why any team that’s playing a quarterback like him, one — he’s the greatest to ever do it, but then also, coaches know, they see that, they recognize, this guy, you can’t keep him in it," Aikman added with his backhanded compliment. "You give him a chance in the fourth quarter, it’s gonna be a tough finish."
