Tom Brady sends prayers as devastating wildfire continues to engulf LA

California native Tom Brady is as devastated as everyone else as the wildfires in the Los Angeles area continue to ruin communities. On Friday morning, the former NFL quarterback posted an aerial photo of the devastation caused in the Pacific Palisades and Malibu communities of California.

Along with the post on his Instagram story, he shared a caption where he sent his prayers to those who have lost their homes and businesses. Brady also sent his gratitude to the first responders who are continuing to put their lives on the line to fight the fires and rescue people.

"Prayers Up. Thank you to our courageous First Responders," Brady wrote on his Instagram Story

Residents of California have been fleeing their homes all week as the Santa Ana winds have fanned the flames, allowing for the fires to spread rapidly.

Due to the fires and poor air quality, Monday night's NFC wild-card game at SoFi Stadium between the Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings has been moved to Glendale, Arizona.

Rob Gronkowski listed three qualities Tom Brady will look for in new Raiders HC

Tom Brady is said to be an integral factor in the selection of the new Las Vegas Raiders head coach. The team parted ways with Antonio Pierce earlier this week after he was hired this past offseason after serving as interim in 2023.

This week, Brady's former teammate Rob Gronkowski, told Kay Adams what the former NFL quarterback will look for in a new head coach.

"If I had to pick and choose what Tom's looking for in a coach, first off I would say the love of the game," Gronkowski said on the Up and Adams Show. "Is he going to be there the entire day breaking down film? Number two would be the knowledge of the game. Does the head coach know the game of football inside and out? Situational football, special teams, defense, offense, all that good stuff.

"Number three would be does the head coach gain respect of the players? If you don't have respect from your players, then no one's gonna listen."

Rob Gronkowski thinks Brady will lean toward hiring an offensive-minded coach more than defensive due to his experience as a quarterback.
