The Brady family's annual Super Bowl photos are back - Boston.com

ATLANTA — With every Super Bowl appearance comes a photo opportunity.

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was all smiles Saturday morning at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, posing for a picture with wife Gisele Bündchen, mother Galynn, father Tom Sr., brother-in-law Kevin Youkilis, and other family members clad in jerseys and TB12 gear. Brady shared the image on Instagram with the caption, “Family and Football,” along with two red heart emojis and the hashtag “#LFG.”

He also shared a selfie with Bündchen.

Bündchen, too, shared a photo of the smiling couple, with the caption, “I got your back!” and a red heart emoji.

Brady’s crew was among more than 800 friends and family members that joined players, coaches, and the organization’s front office staff ahead of Sunday’s big game. The guests mingled on the field, while the Patriots posed for various group photos. In addition to New England’s 53-man roster, players on the practice squad and injured reserve were present.

“This breaks up the day and lets them participate in it with their families,” coach Bill Belichick said, via pool reporter Jenny Vrentas. “This is a dream for every player to play in this game, so to be able to share it with loved ones and family is special. We have tried to embrace it.”
