New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady threw his support behind presidential candidate Donald Trump Wednesday, hours before the second Republican debate.

``I hope so,'' he said. ``It would be great. There would be a putting green on the White House lawn, I can tell you that.''

Brady will lead the Patriots against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
