Tout va très vite en NFL… sauf pour Tom Brady ! Comme en 2017, le quarterback des Patriots termine à la première place du Top 100 des joueurs NFL décidé par les joueurs NFL.
« Merci ! Je suis plus que béni. Le football est le sport d’équipe ultime et j’aime jouer pour mes coéquipiers, mes coachs, ma franchise, ma famille et nos supporters. Félicitations à tous les joueurs honorés pour 2017, mais la saison 2018 arrive », a réagi Brady sur Instagram.
Tout est allé très vite pour Carson Wentz et Todd Gurley. Absents du classement l’année dernière, le quarterback des Eagles et le coureur des Rams grimpent respectivement à la troisième et la sixième place !
Aaron Donald est le premier défenseur de la liste, en pointant au septième rang. La surprise, c’est peut-être de ne retrouver Aaron Rodgers qu’à la dixième position de la liste.
