Tom Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl champion, has a brand new job as the new NFL season draws near.
The retired quarterback and future hall of famer joined Delta as a long-term strategic adviser, according to the company. The man who ripped the heart of Falcons fans after leading a 28-3 comeback in Super Bowl LII is now working for Atlanta-based Delta Airlines.
According to the announcement from Delta, Brady will team with the company to “develop and advise on strategic training and teamwork tools for the airline’s more than 90,000 employees.”
Delta said in a news release that “Brady’s expertise in teamwork, performance, and perseverance” will assist the company.
“Delta’s people are driven by their commitment to world-class performance, excellence, and a desire to achieve best-in-class results,” said Delta CEO Ed Bastian. “Bringing a leader like Tom onto the Delta team furthers our mission to connect the world while accelerating our drive to continuously improve for our colleagues, customers, and communities.”
Brady, whose mother was a flight attendant, said he has always admired people who worked in air travel.

“I am grateful to be joining the Delta family, a company I have loved and respected for years,” Brady said.
As mentioned above, Brady has a history with the Atlanta area as he ripped the heart out of the Falcons fan base when he led his Patriots team back from a 28-3 deficit in the Super Bowl. It included scoring 19 points in the final quarter, including a pair of two-point conversions.
The Patriots won the game with James White’s 2-yard touchdown run in overtime. It was the biggest collapse in Super Bowl history and unlikely to be outdone ever.
