While attending Cedar Cliff High School in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, Brady lettered in football, basketball, and baseball. In football, he was a first team USA Today All-USA selection, a Parade Magazine All-America selection, and as a senior, was the Gatorade Pennsylvania Player of the Year, and the recipient of the Bobby Dodd Award (which is given to the nation's top offensive lineman) given by the Touchdown Club of Atlanta.
At Penn State, Brady was a two-time All-Big Ten selection, and a consensus All-America choice as a senior. As a senior, he helped his team to an undefeated record, a Big Ten championship, and the school's first Rose Bowl victory.
Brady was selected by the New York Jets with the ninth pick of the 1995 NFL Draft, much to the chagrin of the Jets fans in attendance, who wanted the team to draft Warren Sapp. [1]
Brady went on to sign with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 1999, and had his best year in the NFL with the Jaguars, as he, in the 2000 season, set career highs with 64 receptions and 729 receiving yards. He was the Jaguars Man of the Year in 2003.
Brady has a reputation as a very durable player, having only missed nine games in his twelve seasons in the NFL, and as a good blocker. That reputation, in part, helped him to land a two-year contract on March 2, 2007 with the New England Patriots to replace departing free agent Daniel Graham at tight end. [2]
