According to an ESPN report earlier this month, the two remained in touch after Brown was let go in the wake of sexual assault allegations. Brady reportedly told Brown to stay mentally and physically strong in the hopes that the two could play again next season.
It’s unclear if Brown will be eligible to play this season regardless of Brady’s wishes as he is still under investigation by the NFL.
