Former Titan Steve Hutchinson explains possible origin of Tom Brady-MBA rumor

Remember the now-debunked rumor that was going around that Tom Brady and/or his wife Gisele Bunchden were visiting a school in Nashville in January, possibly linking him to the Tennessee Titans?

As it turns out, former Titans guard and Hall of Famer Steve Hutchinson might have been mistaken for Brady when visiting the school for his son’s interview with an administrator that day.

While appearing on The Midday 180 show on Wednesday, Hutchinson explained how he believes it went down.

“So, I’m sitting in the admission’s office with a suit and tie, knowing I had to go right to the event (for the Hall of Fame) when I landed and my son’s in there, so what I think happened was a kid, a student at MBA, had come into the office to see one of the administrators and someone said ‘well you can’t in there, he’s in there with the son of a Hall of Famer.’ That’s the way they described it, I guess, whoever said that. And the kid just, I guess, just thought ‘hey, Tom Brady,’ like first thing that came to mind.”

Hutchinson then went on to say he got a phone call from an agent in Nashville asking him if he was at MBA that day, and it was then Hutchinson discovered that he was mistaken for Brady.

“He said ‘hey, were you by chance at MBA this morning?’ I said ‘yeah,’ he goes, ‘everybody was mistaking you for Tom Brady.'”

While that rumor has since been proven wrong, the Brady to Titans speculation hasn’t stopped, and it will undoubtedly continue until Brady or Tennessee make a decision.
