No, the video was created with director Ari Fararooy, creative studio Warm & Fuzzy and produced by Shadow Lion, a creative media company.

WHAT WE FOUND
On Instagram, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady tagged Ari Fararooy and Shadow Lion for creating the film. Fararooy also shared the video, and confirmed he directed the clip, creative studio Warm & Fuzzy did the computer-generated imagery (CGI), and studio Shadow Lion produced the footage.

Shadow Lion is a creative content services company founded in 2017 “with the goal of supporting Tom Brady’s off-field media efforts,” the website states."

I agree. The second put took a different line than #1 and #3, and just looked fake.

Absolutely fake, the rollers wouldn’t let the ball pass from the front

I was OK with the first video where he was playing catch with the football. If there was such a need for that sort of machine, I'm sure someone could come up with something that would work.

It wasn't until the putting videos that I knew that it had to be fake, and if that was fake, there was a good chance that the other was fake too.

still, interesting/good marketing.

Nah. He’s just messin’ around; staying relevant in the off-season because his handlers told him to.

I’m pretty sure Tom Brady need not sell himself.

Beautiful.

I liked it, sorry, Gents. The concept was just great.

My first clue was the delay in the machine ejecting the ball back. Those wheels have had to have been moving very fast to shoot the ball back like that.

That means there’s no way that machine could possibly catch that ball, hold it for a sec, and then
shoot it back perfectly into Brady’s loving hands-twice!

The third one, where the machine tipped over, was a nice touch. A distraction much like a magician’s trick.

No need to apologize, Paul.

I thought the whole thing was a genius amalgam of disciplines, the practitioners of same coming together to make themselves rich.

Just cuz it’s fake doesn’t mean we don’t like it, if you know what I mean.

The point is even if it isn't real, ....it "could" be.
As in he's good enough to make you wonder.

When George Blanda was 42, he was a place-kicker with a pot belly.
When the rest of the NFL was 42, they were retired.
When Brady was 42, he was still the best that ever played the game even when playing most of the season and superbowl with a torn ligament in his knee.

Sucked me in. I've seen Tiger Woods drive a golf ball through a hole in a curtain on a talk show or two.
