Apparently, Thomas, the Denver Broncos wide receiver, a five-time Pro-Bowl player and a Super Bowl winner himself (in 2014), was in a playful mood, so this should be viewed as no harm, no foul ...

Brady will have a chance to rub it in against the Broncos wideout when Denver plays New England in 2017.
