Tom Brady shared his impressive collection of six Super Bowl rings on Instagram… and boldly declared that “the next one” would be his favorite.
Never content to just sit back, rest on his laurels, and take stock of all the incredible achievements he’s already accomplished over the past two decades, Tom Brady – arguably the greatest competitor active in team sports today – is already eyeing his next big prize.
Less than a week ago, the New England Patriots quarterback attended a Super Bowl ring presentation ceremony at Robert Kraft’s house, where he and all the other members of last season’s championship-winning team partied and celebrated their accomplishments.
The highlight of the night? Of course it had to be the reveal of the rings themselves – the largest ever to be made for an NFL team reportedly. Brady is of course the only player left from all six New England Super Bowl wins, so he had plenty of flashy hardware on his hands at the party – and he also took to Instagram to showcase his collection in its entirety.

Notably, the caption for his post reads as follows:
“Do you know which ring is my favorite? ….The Next One!!!”
This is a familiar mantra to anyone who’s been following Brady and the Patriots for the past 20 years. It’s actually become such a part of the New England mystique and dogma that Boston fans can often be found chanting that they “want more” at Super Bowl victory parades.
“We want six!” was repeatedly sung out in the streets of Beantown after the team’s fifth ring was won two years ago, and there were as many calls for “Seven!” and instances of fans holding seven fingers up in the air as there were of six last February.
Should Brady manage to guide his team to just one more title before he retires, the Patriots would break a tie with the Pittsburgh Steelers and then stand alone as the winningest champion in the Super Bowl era.
