espn tom brady shared a heartfelt message to his former facebook

Tom Brady shared a heartfelt message to his former New England Patriots teammate, Randy Moss, after it was announced the 47-year-old would be stepping away from ESPN due to an undisclosed illness. The sports broadcaster announced last week that Moss, a regular on their Sunday NFL Countdown programme, is temporarily leaving the show to focus on a "personal health challenge". The specifics of his condition remain unknown, but during his last appearance on Sunday NFL Countdown, the Hall of Fame wide receiver admitted he was "battling something internally" as he donned a pair of... Tributes have been flooding in since ESPN confirmed his departure, including from rival analysts at FOX Sports, with the likes of Brady and Rob Gronkowski, both former teammates of Moss, expressing their support during... Brady described Moss as "one of the all-time great teammates and friends", adding: "Our heart obviously is with you, our prayers, all our positive energy. We love you so much, man."

Throughout his illustrious 23-year NFL career, Tom Brady had the opportunity to play with hundreds of different players. It could be argued that the greatest of all Tom Brady's teammates, regardless of position, was Randy Moss. Brady and Moss didn't just connect on fade routes, post patterns, and touchdowns, though. In the three years they spent together in New England, the two hall of famers also developed a special connection as friends. Although the former teammates-turned-media members' schedules likely don't allow them to see each other as much as they'd like these days, it's obvious through their comments over the years that they both continue to...

Sadly, Moss recently announced that he will be stepping away from ESPN's NFL Countdown to focus on a personal health challenge. Although Moss didn't get into the specifics of what exactly it is that he is dealing with, an outpouring of support has come his way from both players, media, and fans alike. Not surprisingly, his former quarterback in New England, Tom Brady, also made a point of sending his best wishes Moss' way. It is safe to say former New England Patriots teammates Tom Brady and Julian Edelman had a connection. With three Super Bowl titles together, the duo solidified their names in the Patriots' record book and hearts of fans. Brady paid tribute to Edelman on Monday after the wide receiver officially announced his retirement from the NFL.

The source of their chemistry is a challenge to pinpoint. Maybe it's because they were both late-round underdogs. Maybe it's because two guys with California roots were just destined for greatness once they linked up in New England. Brady would complete 571 passes to Edelman, more than any other receiver in his career. Regardless of the reason, the football world was fortunate to witness a very special connection between the two. Brady acknowledged Edelman's impact on his career in a lengthy Instagram post.

"I am at the top of the list because when I was down and feeling sorry for myself at times, you were right there to pick me up. You were as tough as could be and I love you for all that you did to make our teams as great as they could possibly be." Here's what Brady had to say via Instagram after Edelman announced his retirement:
