During an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show, legendary throwing coach Tom House shared a story where he says Bill Belichick was considering trading Tom Brady, and he explained to him why he shouldn’t make a move.
House, who made his reputation with working with pitchers such as Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan, was brought in by the Patriots and was working with Brady when one day Belichick called him into his office to ask him why he shouldn’t trade his star quarterback.
“I just said, ‘Well, Bill, the research shows that if Tom does what he’s supposed to do … which he does to the tee, there’s no reason he shouldn’t play until he’s 45.’ And here we are,” House said.
