TMZ Sports released a clip of an upcoming interview with President-elect Donald Trump discussing New England Patriots star quarterback Tom Brady on Fox News Channel’s “OBJECTified: Donald Trump,” set to air at 10 p.m. ET.

Trump said Brady is “totally innocent” in the 2015 “Deflate-gate” scandal that ultimately led to a four-game suspension two seasons later for the quarterback.

“[Brady] played better when he had the other ball,” Trump said. “I think Tom is totally innocent. I think Tom, first of all I know him, he’s an honorable guy, and I’m with him all the way.”
