Tom Brady showed up to Super Bowl festivities as expected, but it was his outfit that sparked chatter online.

Over the weekend, the former professional football quarterback was spotted leaving the Fanatics Luncheon during Super Bowl LX weekend in San Francisco. For the outing, he wore fitted light-wash denim jeans that emphasized his long, lean frame, paired with a beige-and-brown sweater, white sneakers, a luxury watch, and framed sunglasses.

The father of three was seen talking on the phone as fans surrounded him while he crossed the street and made his way into his car.

Fans in the Instagram comments couldn’t resist poking fun at Brady’s look, with many turning the post into a full-blown roast.

“He looks so much like a European guy than American lol,” one fan wrote. Another added, “why are his clothes so small?” One commenter joked, “Am I the only one that thinks Tom Brady looks like a Midwestern woman.” Another said, “This is giving me the ick.”

Others took aim at his personal life, with one writing, “Tell me you lost your model wife without telling me you lost your model wife.” Another quipped, “Not him finding and wearing Gisele’s old skinny jeans.” Fashion critiques kept rolling in too, including, “His stylist nailed ‘rich uncool’,” and “The jacket is so ill fitting.”

Referencing his rumored fling with TikToker Alix Earle, one person asked, “Is this what happens when you spend time with an influencer?” while another summed it up simply: “This midlife crisis.”

Tom Brady and Alix Earle Reignite Romance Rumors

The sighting comes amid reports that the 48-year-old has been spending time with influencer Alix Earle. The two were first spotted together at the same event in St. Barths on December 31, 2025, where they rang in the New Year at the celebrity hotspot. At the time, Earle was seen leaning in to chat with Brady while resting her hand on his back.

Sources initially downplayed the interaction, saying it wasn’t anything serious. However, two months later, the pair were publicly seen together again during Super Bowl weekend.

Videos shared on social media by DeuxMoi appeared to show Brady and the Dancing With the Stars finalist talking and dancing at a party ahead of the big game on Sunday, February 8. In the clips, the two are holding drinks, chatting, and smiling as they move through the crowd together.

Earle recently split from NFL player Braxton Berrios, while Brady has been single since his 2022 divorce from Gisele Bündchen.

Adding to the mixed signals, three separate sources spoke with Daily Mail about the rumored fling, all suggesting that, for now, the two are simply keeping things light and having fun.

A “family” insider said, “People need to mind their own business. She's just living her best life and having fun being single. They're not dating! If they were dating, trust me she wouldn't be so public about it! She's thriving right now. She's happier than she's ever been. Just let the girl live and do whatever she wants because she's killing it right now and her friends and family are all for it. [They're] are having a good time hanging out, and while it could turn into more, nobody is thinking too much about it just yet."

The second source said the two left the Super Bowl party together, while one last source claimed, “If they hang out again, it would be a fling at best. But nothing has happened between them as of yet. It's not that Tom isn't interested - it's just too soon for anything more than a fun hangout."

As of February 9, reports suggest the two are continuing to spend time together, though it has not been confirmed that their relationship is serious or exclusive.
