It’s becoming hard to remember life before Tom Brady dominated Facebook.

The New England Patriots quarterback nailed it once again on this fine Throwback Thursday, this time paying homage to two former teammates who will square off against one another Sunday in Cleveland at 1 p.m.

In honor of the battle of the ex-Brady backups between the Browns’ Brian Hoyer and the Houston Texans’ Ryan Mallett, Brady threw it back to Mallett’s less-than-glorious rookie days.

#tbt to Ryan Mallett carrying Brian Hoyer's and my pads after practice his rookie season. Times have changed! Good luck this weekend, guys! #muchdeserved Posted by Tom Brady on Thursday, November 13, 2014

In addition to the shoutout, Brady added earlier in the week he’ll be watching his ex-teammates square off, as the Pats don’t face the Indianapolis Colts until 8 p.m. that night.
