Pats teammates gush about sharing locker room with 'walking legend' Brady

Tom Brady further cemented his status as one of the all-time great quarterbacks by winning his 201st career game on Sunday.

Brady became the most winningest quarterback in league history and his teammates couldn't contain their glee.

"We're in a locker room with a walking legend," New England Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler said, Phil Perry of CSNNE writes.

"The most wins in quarterback history in the NFL, but he still comes to work like he hasn't accomplished anything. I look up to that."

Receiver Julian Edelman has never been one to shy away from his love of all things Brady.

"It couldn't happen to a better guy or a better player," he said. "Everything he's done, he's deserved."

Running back LeGarrette Blount believes the new mark Brady will set will stand the test of time.

"I think that's a record that's probably not ever going to be broken," he said. "He's going to continue to build on it this season, and he's looking great while doing it."

Brady could have reached the record quicker had he not been suspended for the first four games of the season in the Deflategate fallout.
