New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft shared another tribute to Tom Brady this past weekend.

On Sunday, Kraft took out a full page ad in the Tampa Bay times and shared a lengthy thank you message to the future Hall of Fame quarterback.

“For 20 amazing years, you gave us everything you had. When you arrived as a sixth-round pick and the best selection this franchise has ever made, no one imagined you’d accomplish or how much you’d mean to an entire region. You now leave New England after two decades of dominance as the GOAT and forever a part of our family.”

The Kraft family also bought 12 billboards across New England last week featuring a special message to Brady.

Brady, of course, won six Super Bowls in his 20 years with the Patriots before becoming a free agent this offseason and signed a two-year, $50 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The deal was made official Friday when Brady signed his contact and he shared a photo of that moment over Instagram.
