Randy Moss brought to tears by ovation at Tom Brady’s Patriots ceremony
NY Post
Tom Brady wasn’t the only one having an emotional night on Wednesday at Gillette Stadium.
While joining Brady on stage as part of the quarterback’s induction into the Patriots Hall of Fame, receiver Randy Moss received a standing ovation from the more than 60,000 fans in attendance.
“I think that a lot of football fans were just wondering what they were gonna get,” Moss said, referring to the start of the connection between him and Brady.
Unlike most cornerbacks lined up against him during his own Hall of Fame career, Moss was stopped in his tracks by raucous applause, a standing ovation that lasted almost a minute.
“Y’all know it’s always good to feel this,” Moss remarked with a tear streaming from his right eye. “I thank y’all.”
The celebration came with Moss presenting on a panel with Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, Brady and NBC’s Mike Tirico, who served as host.
