Tom Brady criticized for untimely comment on Randy Moss’s Instagram
It makes sense that Tom Brady thinks Randy Moss looks better in a New England Patriots uniform than he does wearing Minnesota Vikings colors, but the four-time Super Bowl MVP picked a pretty puzzling time to express that.
On Sunday, Moss shared a tribute on Instagram to Fred Zamberletti, the longtime Vikings athletic trainer who passed away at age 86. For whatever reason, Brady saw Moss’s Instagram post as an opportunity to tell the Hall of Fame receiver that he looks better in a Pats uniform.

As you might expect, people tore into Brady.

We can only hope that Brady or the person running his Instagram account did not realize Moss was paying tribute to someone who passed away. Otherwise, that was horribly timed to say the least.
Brady has been noticeably short with the media this offseason, and it would not be a surprise if he’s asked a question this week about his Instagram activity.
