Tom Brady congratulated Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce for ‘one-upping’ him and Rob Gronkowski

Tom Brady Patrick Mahomes Travis Kelce Rob Gronkowski

They’re not done playing together, and Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce might already be the greatest duo in NFL postseason history. While the two superstars helped lead the Kansas City Chiefs to an upset win over the Buffalo Bills, they surpassed Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski for the most playoff touchdowns (16) between a quarterback and receiver ever.

As the Chiefs began preparing for their sixth straight AFC title game, Brady saw fit to chime in on this news. It may as well have been his unofficial blessing to Mahomes and Kelce for their continued success together. On Twitter, the now-retired future Hall of Fame quarterback graciously complimented Mahomes and Kelce for “one-upping” Gronkowski (and himself, even if he didn’t type it).

Coming from Brady, such a compliment couldn’t mean any more:

There was a time when Brady to Gronkowski was unstoppable this time of year, helping lead the New England Patriots (and Tampa Bay Buccaneers) to terrific achievements in January (and February) year after year. It’s mind-boggling to consider that Mahomes and Kelce might be even better.

Heck, Brady himself seems to be acknowledging that reality. And that’s saying something.

This was how Twitter reacted to Brady's compliment to Mahomes and Kelce
