Tom Brady reveals Randy Moss showed up at the Patriots’ team hotel while he was still playing for the Raiders, asking Brady to help get him to New England “So Randy, when he was at the Raiders, we were playing in ’06. We were playing at Minnesota and he flew, it was a Monday night game, he flew after a game to meet in a team hotel. And of course at the time I’m like, I don’t know. It’s not like I’m the general manager or anything.” “And he showed up and they’re like, ‘Tommy, Randy’s here.’ So I went and saw him. He’s like, ‘Yo man, I love, love the way you play, man. I want to, like, I want to figure out how to make it happen.’ Of course, I’m like, ‘All right, like why are you talking to me?’ Like, yeah, like I love that, too.” “But, you know, and then sure enough, yeah, like it all, the trade goes down in ’07 and we got Randy and all of a sudden it was like, well, what can, you know, a lot of saying, well, he’s done. What can he do? He comes into OTAs and he wasn’t in the best of shape in OTAs. Like, you know, probably not most, he probably had a few years in Oakland where, you know, it wasn’t the most motivated, so probably didn’t get the best out of him.” “He’s kind of getting guarded by some people in OTAs, by like some guys he shouldn’t be guarded by. And I’m kind of like, when is he going to turn it on? All of a sudden, we get to training camp and we run the conditioning test and Randy comes. He takes his shirt off. He’s lean, like in shape. He’s running the conditioning test like a deer.”
