A Damar Hamlin defensive highlight against Tom Brady at a beach football game probably wasn’t on anyone’s NFL offseason bingo card, but it recently occurred.
Brady, Hamlin, and several other NFL stars played some pick-up football on Thursday at Michael Rubin’s annual Fourth of July “white party” held in the Hamptons in New York.
One play from the star-studded showdown in the sand went viral on social media. Brady tried to hit a receiver who appeared to be running a corner route but severely underthrew the pass. Hamlin intercepted it and ran the other way, much to the delight of everyone watching.
Brady’s teammate, Micah Parsons, couldn’t believe the 7-time Super Bowl winner gave up what appeared to be a pick-six.
“Come on, Tom!” Parsons was heard saying.

The miscue may have reignited the fire in Brady. On the very next play, Brady hit Parsons with a perfect deep ball for a touchdown.

After two years away from the NFL, Brady appears to be thoroughly enjoying his retirement.
From being linked to Brazilian influencers to getting booed at public events, Brady has had a lot going on of late.
