Afterward, the Granite Stater in town with his mom and stepfather told NBC10 Boston that he does get told fairly often he looks like Brady, and usually replies, "I can kind of agree with you on that. Thank you for the compliment, I'm very humbled."
Asked how he compares himself to his doppelganger, Will noted Tom's muscles, saying he's "quite a beast on the field, and I'm like the younger version of Tom, I feel like."
