Tom Brady shared insight with James Corden on many subjects, according to Fox News.

Corden asked about the Lombardi Trophy toss.

“First of all, I was not thinking at that moment. It was not a thought. It was, ‘This seems really fun to do,'” Brady told Corden. “Not to mention, when you get your hands on one of those trophies, there’s a lot of really sharp edges on the bottom.”

“I found out later, had that been an incomplete pass, that would have went down like 80 feet.”

“Daddy, no!” can be heard in the video where Brady throws the trophy.

“That’s my little 8-year-old daughter,” Brady said. “Who could imagine that an 8-year-old girl would have the most sense of anybody in that whole area at the time? She’s the voice of reason. Go figure.”

Coden asked if Brady was helped off the boat because he suffered from having sea legs or too many shots of tequila.

“A little of both,” Brady said. “It was definitely a moment of celebration. I’m happy I’m on land at that point.”

“I’m happy I’m being surrounded by my fellow quarterback Griff [Ryan Griffin] at the right place at the right time,” he continued. “Who could have a friend better than that? Making sure I was just so comfortable walking off the boat like that.”

Following Brady’s latest victory he was reunited with his family.

“All of a sudden I see my oldest son run over to me ‘Dad!’ and I gave him a big hug and I saw my two little ones and then all of a sudden I saw my wife and I gave her a big hug, and just as I did it she says, ‘What more do you have to prove?'”

Corden asked Brady if he had a shot in the NFL.

“Being completely honest, you have zero chance. Zero,” Brady said.

“I might not make Tampa, but I could play for the Jets?” the host replied.

“You might be able to play for the Jets. You’re right about that,” the quarterback added.
