Ray Lewis backs off Tom Brady 'Tuck Rule' comments
Ray Lewis backed off his ridiculous comments about Tom Brady on Thursday.
On Wednesday Ray Lewis floated one of the more ridiculous theories ever floated: if it weren't for the "Tuck Rule" we wouldn't know who Tom Brady was.
Brady didn't jump on the comments when asked about them during Patriots media availability, simply saying "everyone has an opinion."
Probably because, like everyone else, Brady knows Lewis is dead wrong.
On Thursday, the former Ravens linebacker did his best cornerback impersonation and backed the heck off those comments with a string of tweets.

I have immense respect for Tom Brady and everything he has achieved in this league. He will go down as one of the all-time greats."

This was the pretty obvious conclusion of this ridiculous storyline right? Brady is one of the five greatest quarterbacks of all time. Thankfully Lewis was willing to admit his mistake.
