VIDEO: Adrian Peterson and Tom Brady Exchange Jerseys After Patriots Beat Redskins
By Kevin Aquino
The Washington Redskins may not have put up much of a fight against the Patriots this weekend, but that didn't take away from the allure of an awesome moment which took place at midfield in the aftermath. Two of the greatest to ever suit up, Tom Brady and Adrian Peterson, met at the 50-yard line for a jersey exchange.

Peterson approached Brady and asked for his jersey, to which Brady replied saying that he'd get it to him afterwards.
It's nice to know that somebody on the Redskins is happy after an 0-5 start and the loss of head coach Jay Gruden. Washington may remain one of the NFL's winless teams so far, but Peterson picked up a W with a game-worn Brady jersey.
Peterson has a hefty resume of his own: 2012 league MVP, 2012 Offensive Player of the Year, seven-time Pro-Bowl selection, four-time First-team All-Pro, the list goes on. So while Tom didn't show it, he was probably pretty thrilled to get his hands on AD's kit.
Adrian Peterson, asked about the New England defense, gave his own team a delightful burn.

"They showed a lot of exotic stuff on film. But against us, they didn’t really. You know? It was like, hey, we’ll sit back here and see what you guys do, allow you guys to mess up."
A jersey swap between legends is always welcome by us fans, and it definitely seemed like the moment meant a lot to the players involved as well.
