“He’s obviously a great young player and we have our hands full with the (defensive) line,” Brady said via NFL.com. “He’s going to the state of Ohio, so I think the case of the state of Ohio in Ohio is a bit off.”
The eager rookie won his first division title on Sunday in a 20-14 victory over the Eagles. As he stepped off the field, he heard Young shout, “Tom Brady! Tom Brady, I’m coming. I want Tom!”

“I’m excited for every game. Tom Brady? You think I would not be excited to play against the BOK? You trippin ‘,” Young said via NFL.com. “I’m not going to apologize for saying I want Tom.”
