Jake Paul Reacts to Tom Brady Slapping Brother Logan at Fanatics Fest
The apparent feud continued as Brady and Paul exchanged pleasantries after the slap, and Michael Rubin posted the World Cup moment on Instagram.
- On Friday at Fanatics Fest, retired NFL legend Tom Brady slapped internet personality Logan Paul, an interaction captured by Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin following months of public bickering.
- This suspected feud began in February 2026 when Brady appeared on Paul's podcast, 'Impaulsive,' downplaying the wrestling star's athleticism; the rivalry intensified during a Fanatics Flag Football Classic in Saudi Arabia.
- Footage from Sunday's World Cup Final at MetLife Stadium captured the two exchanging middle fingers; Brady later commented on X, 'I tried America...will try again next time I see this nerd.'
- Noting he is 'retired from football,' Brady has signaled interest in stepping into the wrestling world; however, Paul's torn triceps and six-month recovery timeline complicate any potential match at SummerSlam in August.
- While Brady continues his broadcast work for FOX, critics like Barstool Sports' Dave Portnoy have questioned these WWE-style antics, suggesting they threaten the legacy of the former New England Patriots quarterback.
