Tom Brady surprised NFL fans on Tuesday revealed that he cloned his late dog, Lua, with the help of Colossal Biosciences, a biotech company in which he is an investor. Lua, a dog he shared with ex-wife Gisele Bundchen, died in December 2023. After that, Brady welcomed a similar dog, Junie.
On Tuesday, the seven-time Super Bowl champion revealed that he cloned his dog in a statement shared by the company.
“I love my animals. They mean the world to me and my family,” the former NFL star said. “A few years ago, I worked with Colossal and took advantage of their non-invasive cloning technology by simply drawing blood from our family's senior dog before he died.”

“Brother cloned himself and that's why we got Drake Maye,” Sleeper X's account tweeted.
Others were not comfortable learning that information about Brady's dog.
“Falls right in the middle of 'awwww' and 'wtf'” a fan he said
“Who had Tom Brady and cloning on their sports bingo card today?” another fan he said
“Thanks for the really weird message of the day,” another fan he said

Bill Simmons declares Tom Brady the GOAT amid Patrick Mahomes
After the Kansas City Chiefs' 28-21 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 9 on Sunday, analyst Bill Simmons proclaimed Brady as the best quarterback in history.
“The Patriots with Tom Brady as the starter only started 5-4 twice,” Simmons said on his podcast. “In 2001 and 2002. In 2001, he didn't even start the first three games. In 2002, they went 9-7. . . . So everybody can take a big sip of quiet juice in the GOAT discussion.
“Tom Brady is, we're still good. Win a few more Super Bowls and maybe not start the season 5-4 and we can throw you into the GOAT conversation.”
The Chiefs have struggled to find consistency this season. They've dealt with injuries and suspensions so far, but you can never count them out, especially in the playoffs.
