In true New England Patriots fashion, Tom Brady refused to let the spotlight shine solely on him, even during his Super Bowl MVP press conference Monday.

Asked how he felt about winning his fourth Super Bowl MVP trophy, Brady said: "I think James White deserves it."

While it was likely Brady was going to win the award after a spectacular fourth quarter, White played one of the best games of his career.

The running back finished the game with 14 catches for 110 yards, 29 rushing yards, and three total touchdowns, including the game-winning score in overtime.

"James White is like my oldest son," said Brady. "He does everything right. You can't get mad at him. I'm so proud of him."
