Tom Brady gets sentimental after ‘special Thanksgiving weekend’ filled with family and football

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

The Thanksgiving weekend was a “special” one for Tom Brady, as the NFL quarterback legend got sentimental with a lengthy social media post showcasing days filled with nostalgia, family and more.

Brady performed his Thanksgiving Day duties for Fox Sports, calling the Detroit Lions-Green Bay Packers game alongside play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt, but he also enjoyed some college festivities after a trip to his alma matter, the University of Michigan, for “The Game” against Ohio State and more.

Brady posted a carousel of pictures to his Instagram, featuring his children — Jack, 18, Benjamin, 15 and Vivian, 12 — as well as his parents, Galynn Patricia and Tom Sr., and niece Hannah Brady, who plays Division I volleyball for the Wolverines.

“What a special thanksgiving weekend with the people I love most,” the 48-year-old future Pro Football Hall of Fame captioned the carousel. “Laughing, playing, eating too much…and enjoying our family and football and tradition in the state of Michigan.”

Brady’s first picture on the carousel was him and his daughter, Vivian, smiling on the Big House turf in Ann Arbor. Brady and company would’ve certainly liked a different result during the game, though, as the Buckeyes finally snapped their losing stream against their most heated rival to remain the top team in the country.

The second picture was also a family affair, this time on the volleyball court at the university.

“I am so blessed to work with the best team at [Fox Sports] delivering a great game between the Lions and the Packers,” Brady wrote. “Working with Kevin Burkhardt and Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi and our entire crew made last Thursday so much fun. And then to travel shortly down the road to Ann Arbor to watch the most athletic Brady family member to ever play at Michigan, my niece who plays for the Wolverines Volleyball team, and spend time with all of my extended family made this one of the best Thanksgivings ever.”

Brady famously worked his way through the Wolverines’ football quarterback depth chart, beginning in 1995 as a freshman out of Junipero Serra High School in San Mateo, California.

He got sentimental about his time back in Ann Arbor, which he says he always cherishes.

“It’s always such a special experience being on the Michigan campus, especially now that I don’t have to take finals anymore!” Brady joked. “We got to go to the big house to see Michigan football take on a great Ohio State team [angry emoji] And to see so many former teammates and friends meant the world to me. I’m so appreciate and grateful for all the incredible memories and relationships that have been created since I started at Michigan in 1995.”

But the trip to Ann Arbor wasn’t just about Brady reminiscing — he enjoyed every second that his family got to spend with him there as well, especially his children.

“To share that experience and all those memories with my kids was a dream come true. The game didn’t quite turn out the way we hoped (I still maintain it was a touchback!)” Brady wrote, referencing a controversial Ohio State touchdown by Jeremiah Smith in the Michigan loss. “But the sun always comes up the next day, and to realize that it was one of the best weekends of my life Surrounded by the love of my parents means the world to me. I look forward to coming back soon and to finishing the NFL season strong and creating more unforgettable memories with this crew.

“Sending my love to you all and gratitude and I hope you all had an incredible Thanksgiving as well. Even the people in Columbus [winking emoji].”

As the carousel of pictures continued, Brady was spotted walking out of the tunnel and onto the field at the Big House before the Michigan-Ohio State game with his daughter. He was also pictured with his two sons in the tunnel, sharing a flick on the volleyball court with his niece, and even having a catch inside a practice facility for the Wolverines football team with Jack.

It was a family affair both in Detroit and Ann Arbor, and it’s certainly one that Brady and the rest of his family won’t forget.

Former Cowboys player Trysten Hill appears to grin after arrest tied to alleged assault of pregnant woman

Former NFL defensive tackle Trysten Hill was booked into a Texas jail last week on multiple charges relating to an alleged assault of a pregnant woman.

Ellis County Sheriff’s Office jail records list “assault of a pregnant person” and “interfering with an emergency request for assistance.” 

FOX 4 in Dallas obtained the records, which also showed Hill was arrested March 26.

Hill was booked and held on a $3,500 bond connected to two bond-forfeiture warrants from a 2025 criminal investigation, the sheriff’s office said.

Golf influencer Paige Spiranac shares words of encouragement for Tiger Woods after DUI arrest

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Golf influencer Paige Spiranac shared some encouraging words for Tiger Woods, who announced this week he would be stepping away from golf to “seek treatment” after his DUI arrest in Jupiter Island, Florida Friday. 

Spiranac reacted on social media after seeing Woods’ statement and the whole situation unfold after his rollover car crash. 

“I think we are all rooting for Tiger,” she posted on X. “Not as a golfer but more importantly as a person. None of us can fathom what he’s been through both emotionally and physically. 

“Not excusing any behavior, but I hope he’s able to get the help he needs in peace without the whole world dog piling on him in a very difficult situation.”

Woods entered a not guilty plea in court Tuesday, waiving his right to an arraignment and demanding a trial with a jury. He later released the statement, saying he would seek treatment and focus on his health. 

“I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today,” Woods said in the statement posted on social media. “I am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery.

“I’m committed to taking the time needed to return in a healthier, stronger, and more focused place, both personally and professionally. I appreciate your understanding and support, and ask for privacy for my family, loved ones and myself at this time.”

Woods’ attorney, Douglas N. Duncan, did not immediately respond to a request for comment by Fox News Digital.

Woods was arrested in Florida, and prescription opioids were found in his pocket after he was involved in a rollover crash Friday, according to court documents.

The 15-time major winner was arrested on charges of driving under the influence with property damage and refusal to submit to a blood alcohol level (BAL) test after law enforcement said his vehicle collided with another while driving impaired.

According to an arrest affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital, deputies with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office reported observing several signs of impairment after the crash. They noted Woods was “sweating profusely,” his movements appeared “lethargic and slow” and his eyes were “bloodshot and glassy” as well as “extremely dilated” after removing his sunglasses. Woods admitted to being distracted before the crash. 

“Woods stated he was looking down at his cell phone and changing the radio station and did not notice the vehicle in front of him slowing down,” deputies wrote in the affidavit.

After Woods was placed under arrest, authorities found “two white pills inside Woods’ left side pant pocket,” which were later identified as hydrocodone, a prescription pain relief opioid.

This marks the second DUI arrest for Woods in the last decade. He was also taken into custody on Jupiter Island in 2017 after being asleep behind the wheel of a running vehicle at 3 a.m. after taking prescription drugs.

Woods was also involved in a 2021 rollover crash that resulted in serious leg injuries and emergency surgeries, which is what he was alluding to during the field sobriety tests. 

Woods just returned to The Golf League earlier this month for his first round of competition since undergoing more surgeries on his back while also needing to repair a torn Achilles.

While Woods was reportedly trying to get in shape to play in the Masters Tournament, his statement confirmed he won’t be participating in this year’s field. Woods also signed up for the U.S. Senior Open, according to TGL teammate Kevin Kisner, which is scheduled for early July.
