Patriots players’ kids stayed up late to help their dads celebrate a Super Bowl victory
As the Patriots secured an historic Super Bowl victory Sunday night, Tom Brady and other players were cheered on by their biggest fans–their kids.
Brady, Martellus Bennett, and other members of the Patriots roster were joined in Houston for Super Bowl 51 by their children, and they celebrated the championship comeback with their kids by their sides. From interrupted post-game press conferences to heartfelt social media snaps, Pats players proved that their Super Bowl win was truly a family affair.
After the Patriots’ victory, Brady broke down in tears, hugging wife Gisele Bündchen and daughter Vivian, who wore a TB12 jersey in support of her dad.

Safety Duron Harmon, who predicted the Patriots’ historic comeback at halftime, had some company at his presser as well. With his son on his lap, Harmon spoke to reporters, referring to Tom Brady as the “Michael Jordan of football.”
