Tom Brady praises growing connection with Josh Gordon

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon got a coveted endorsement from Tom Brady on Monday.

Brady praised Gordon in his weekly interview with WEEI, praising the wide receiver and talking about a growing confidence in the connection they have.

“I think our confidence is growing and growing and growing … I’m excited to see where we’re going.” — Tom Brady, on @KirkAndCallahan, talking about his connection with Josh Gordon when asked about Gordon’s go-up-and-get-it fourth-and-1 catch.

The catch that Brady was responding to a question about was one of the best of the weekend, and shows Gordon’s pure talent has never waned. The receiver went for 100 yards on four catches Sunday against Chicago, and he’s getting plenty of targets from Brady. That’s obviously an excellent sign, and it sounds like everyone involved believes there’s even more upside there.
