New England Patriots fans won't exactly be smiling from ear to ear upon hearing the news that the Pats legend Brady was texting Macdonald.

While Brady was simply being a good guy, plenty of Patriots fans are still miffed with Brady for his reluctance to openly root for the Pats in the Super Bowl.

Others defending Brady pointed to his position as an owner of the Raiders, not to mention his broadcasting role, which requires neutrality and professionalism.

The Patriots unveiled a 12-foot bronze statue of Brady outside of Gillette Stadium last August, commemorating the GOAT's six Super Bowl rings in New England.
