Brady's statue features the record-setting QB standing tall with a helmet in his left hand hanging by his side while holding his right fist up in the air.

Sculpted by Jeff Buccacio, the statue was intended to embody Brady's life work rather than capturing a singular moment.

Buccacio created a three-foot version of the piece to present to the Kraft family in 2023. The 12-foot version took the sculptor over 20,000 hours to make.
