Tom Brady Airs Incredible 18-Yard TD To Rex Burkhead

Who said that Tom Brady lost his magic? The quarterback has just found his way to Rex Burkhead, and it resulted in a score.

The Patriots are playing the New York Jets in the final game of the regular season. Gillette Stadium is on fire at the moment as the Patriots are playing their best football. It seems like Tom Brady and his teammates learned from their mistakes. Brady threw a nice rainbow pass to Burkhead at the 12:53 mark of the second quarter of the match. The back caught the ball in the back of the end zone for an 18-yard touchdown, and brought the Patriots’ lead to 14-3.

This is Burkhead’s first catch of the game on a drive and also his very first touchdown this season. 2018 was actually a trying season for Burkhead. He spent most days of the season on injured reserve due to his neck injury. Burkhead was hurt in the game against the Detroit Lions at the beginning of the season.

Heading into the Week 17 match, the back was able to catch 13 passes for 113 yards and rushed for 172 yards. The Patriots are ready for the playoffs, and it is definitely refreshing to see Burkhead catching some fire.

Tom Brady is brilliant in this game as he completed 13 of his 15 passes for 131 yards and a couple of touchdowns. So, no, the quarterback is not out of shape, and he is ready to give haters some more of his strength. This is a sign of relief for the Patriots. They did not have too many great games in the regular season, and it was about time that their passing attack gets stronger. Will the Patriots win this game? Let’s wait and see if they manage to win the finale.
