Thanks to Brady and TE Rob Gronkowski, Kennedy is acquiring tens of thousands of dollars worth in cryptocurrency. Kennedy explained that money was never an option. He stated that he never would have auctioned or sold the historical ball. Kennedy explained that had he stayed in possession of the ball, he would have held on to it.
He also said it could have been a nice memento for his office. Kennedy speaks as though he has no second thoughts about returning the ball. As long as Kennedy is fine with his decision, that is the biggest takeaway.
How Byron Kennedy Got The Ball
In Week 7, Tom Brady went into the contest versus the Chicago Bears with 598 touchdowns, which was an NFL record. He was two touchdown passes away from being the first NFL player to toss 600 TD passes. Brady’s first touchdown throw was to WR Chris Godwin. Brady put himself in position to hit the magical total as the Bucs took advantage of a Bears fumble towards the conclusion of the first quarter.
Brady dropped back on a pass and hit WR Mike Evans for the 600th TD pass. Evans appears to have not been aware that this was touchdown number 600. Evans took to the back of the end zone and gave the ball to Kennedy, who was donning his number 13 jersey in the crowd. Kennedy got himself a hall of fame return on a ball that is worthy of the hall of fame in Canton, Ohio.
