Tom Brady Stars in Ad With Super Bowl Nemesis Nick Foles During Chiefs-Eagles

There may never be another Super Bowl quite like Super Bowl LII.

Presaging the NFL's late-2010s scoring explosion, the consensus greatest quarterback of all time and a backup on his third franchise went blow-for-blow for 60 minutes. In the end, Nick Foles's Philadelphia Eagles emerged victorious 41–33 over Tom Brady's New England Patriots.

It was incredible theatre, but a sore spot for Brady in an otherwise masterful late career. Now, however, he and Foles can laugh about their epic clash.

The two quarterbacks starred in an ad for Boston-based sportswear company Nobull made ahead of Super Bowl LIX Sunday between the Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs (Brady is the company's second-largest shareholder).

"You know the play," Foles tells Brady. "The one I caught and you didn't. The Philly Special."

"Luck is a very real thing," Brady tells Foles's nephew in response. "Just ask your uncle."

"I think we're cool, right?" Foles deadpans.

It appears retirement has been good to both players.
