Tom Brady may be retired and about to begin his new gig as a color commentator with Fox Sports, but the New England Patriots legend has still got a prime passing touch.
Ahead of Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin‘s All White 4th of July party, Brady was again playing quarterback for a beach football game involving plenty of celebrities.
In an Instagram video shared by rapper French Montana, Brady is in the pocket and looking for an open receiver.
Not unlike trying to deliver a dart to Julian Edelman or Randy Moss, Brady unleashed a picture-perfect spiral in the direction of an open target.
The receiver overran Brady’s pass that was supposed to hit him in stride, with the ball falling to the sand. In unison, several others playing in the game put their hands on their heads in disbelief.

In a previous reel, Brady threw another pass, but it was intercepted, with some of the celebrities blocking a smiling Brady from making the tackle.
Also present at what Rubin described as his ‘Pre White Party mini camp’ was rapper Travis Scott, who was seen publicly for the first time since his arrest in Miami last week.
Scott was arrested in connection with misdemeanor trespassing and public intoxication last Thursday in Miami Beach.
The 33-year-old, who was released from jail after posting a $650 bond, ran through and scored a touchdown in the beach football game after taking a pass from Brady, before spiking the ball like the latter’s former Patriots teammate Rob Gronkowski.
Among the other star guests in attendance this week are Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin, comedian Druski, LSU gymnastics superstar Olivia Dunne and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Brooks Nader.
Brady has consistently stayed in the headlines after his second retirement, more recently thanks to Netflix’s live roast of him.

The live roast hosted by Kevin Hart unspooled tons of momentum for him and those around him, with some going as far to give the quarterback Brady replaced on the Patriots, Drew Bledsoe, unprecedented airtime.
Brady is arguably the most polarizing athlete of the 21st century, with LeBron James possibly as his only contemporary.
He’s a seven-time Super Bowl winner and on a shortlist of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time.
And even though he’ll be in the commentary booth come this fall, Patriots and Buccaneers fans will be happy to see Brady’s still got it a month away from turning 47.
