Tom Brady intended to share golf photos featuring his son, but the focus quickly shifted as fans and former teammates pointed out that his 17-year-old son, Jack, now surpasses him in height.
On August 20, 2025, Brady posted images on social media from a day at The Hills resort in East Quogue, New York. In these pictures, Jack is noticeably taller than Brady, who is recorded at 6 feet 4 inches. This height difference has captured the internet’s attention.
Mike Evans, who previously played with Brady on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, was quick to comment. “Is Jack standing on something? Besides business, lol,” Evans remarked.
Rob Gronkowski, Brady’s former teammate from both the Patriots and Buccaneers, added his input. “Jack is way more beastly than you,” Gronkowski commented.
The images depict Brady in a white T-shirt, black pants, and a baseball cap, standing next to Jack on the golf course. Jack’s arm around Brady’s shoulder highlights the height disparity. Brady captioned the post with, “Everything still pretty much the same ’round here,” although Jack’s growth indicates otherwise.
Jack, legally named John Edward Thomas Moynahan, celebrated his 18th birthday on August 22. He is Brady’s eldest child with actress Bridget Moynahan. Brady also shares two younger children with ex-wife Gisele Bundchen: Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12.
Jack’s height has previously been noted. Earlier photos from Brady showed Jack nearing his father’s height, but recent images confirm he has now surpassed him.
Fans and former teammates expressed surprise in the comments. Many mentioned how unexpected it was to see Jack taller than the NFL star. Some joked about Jack attracting college recruitment offers due to his stature and appearance.
While Jack is gaining recognition in sports, his interests lean more towards basketball and lacrosse than football. Brady has also highlighted his younger son Benjamin’s basketball abilities, including potential recruitment by Michigan.
Jack participated in high school football as a quarterback and safety. However, Brady mentioned in a 2023 interview that Jack might not continue with football, stating, “Yeah, he played this last year, and I don’t even know if he’s going to play next year.” He assured that he supports Jack’s choices.
Brady has consistently advocated for his children to pursue their own interests. He has noted Jack’s enthusiasm for lacrosse and academic achievements, with basketball currently being his primary sport.
The former quarterback frequently shares family experiences on social media. These golf photos exemplify Brady’s commitment to spending time with Jack, albeit with some teasing from the public.
After retiring from the NFL following the 2022 season, Brady has been employed as a broadcaster for Fox Sports under a 10-year contract valued at $375 million. He spends his free time with his children.
Brady and Bundchen divorced in October 2022 after a 13-year marriage. Despite changes in his personal and professional life, Brady remains focused on being an involved father to his children and supports their individual pursuits.
