Tom Brady has been asked for autographs before, but perhaps not quite like this.
After the Tampa Bay Buccaneers rallied to beat the New York Jets on Sunday, Jets cornerback Brandin Echols approached Brady following the game and asked the quarterback to sign the football that the rookie intercepted earlier in the contest. Echols picked off Brady just before halftime with 28 seconds left — and Fox cameras captured the 24-year-old seeking out the future Hall of Famer afterward.
Brady, 44, agreed to sign it.

Echols was 2 years old when Brady was drafted.
