Tom Brady Foot Locker commercial mocks Deflategate (Video)
Foot Locker released a new ad spot on Wednesday for its fifth annual “Week of Greatness,” and the commercial subtly tackles one of the most overblown controversies in NFL history — Deflategate.
Every discussion of Deflategate begins and ends, of course, with Tom Brady. So naturally, Foot Locker hired Brady to be the star of the show. The New England Patriots quarterback did not disappoint. Have a look:

“Why would you punish the Week of Greatness for something that never even happened?!”
No company is better at getting athletes to mock themselves than Foot Locker, as we saw with that hilarious D’Angelo Russell commercial that was released back in the summer. Brady nailed it.
