He pointed out that becoming a quarterback is not a one-time thing, rather it is a continuous process of learning. With that in mind, anyone with the sort of dedication that Kyle Trask has shown will stand in good stead. He emphasized that the secret to longevity as a player lies in the work they put in training prior to the game.

Tom Brady shared pearls of wisdom with Kyle Trask

Tom Brady also took the opportunity to share some pearls of wisdom with the next generation of quarterbacks in general, and Kyle Trask in particular.

He shared nuggets of his own journey and said that what he knew as a rookie was nothing compared to what he knew after a decade, and in turn that did not compare with what he knows now. His advice to the rookie quarterback was to keep his head down and keep working and choosing to learn instead of thinking he already knows best.

Tom Brady is perhaps singularly qualified to give this advice as he also started off on the bench behind Drew Bledsoe with the New England Patriots. If there's anyone well-placed to mentor a late QB pick, it's Tom Brady.
