When speaking to TMZ Sports, Jones was asked about Brady's meltdown and explained that emotions can take over during the sport. "It happens with everybody," he said. "Football is a very emotional game, very emotional game, and if you're not playing with emotion, then you shouldn't be out there, because that means you probably don't want to win."

The 44-year-old continued to stand up for Brady, saying, "That happens all the time. I know when people see it on TV and when they get clips of it, sometimes it's out of context, that's the nature of the game. That's the nature of the emotions of the game."

He concluded by saying, "That's definitely not Tom Brady's first time and definitely not his last time."

After 13 years of marriage, Brazilian fashion model, Gisele Bündchen, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback, Tom Brady, are seemingly going their separate ways as reports confirmed they both hired their own divorce lawyers.

In addition, both Brady and Bündchen have been spotted recently without their wedding rings.

The divorce is very hard on Brady. “Think about it: Tom has had a very charmed life,” one source admitted. “Things always seem to go his way. He works hard, he’s a good guy, he hasn’t had a lot of things go wrong in his life. This is awful for him. You can tell that this really, really hurts.”
