The Philadelphia Eagles are looking for their second Super Bowl win, and once again they are looking to do it against an all-time great quarterback.&nbsp; Their first win, coming against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots seven years ago, was met with praise not only from fans, but also a famed opposing WAG.&nbsp; Former Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffrey claimed that Tom Brady's ex-wife, Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bündchen, ran into him after he helped defeat her husband's team and congratulated him on the win.&nbsp; "After all the interviews, the craziest part is I run into Gisele afterwards, and she said, ‘Congratulations.' I'm like, ‘Oh shoot.' I didn't really know what to say so I just say, ‘Thank you!’" Jeffrey said during an interview on Johnny Manziel's podcast "Glory Daze," a production of Almost Friday Media.

But she maintained a very different tone after the Eagles loss in 2018, according to Jeffrey.&nbsp; Brady and Bundchen went on to get divorced in October 2022, after the quarterback came out of retirement to play one more NFL season.

"Cool ESPN, love the support of a major sports platform for one of the best players in the league." she wrote while quote-tweeting the ESPN X (then known as Twitter) post, including corn emojis to suggest the network was being "corny."&nbsp;  Later in the quarter,&nbsp;the X account for ESPN's flagship program, SportsCenter, posted a different close-up shot of Patrick staring into space.&nbsp; "Y'all are [trash emojis] for this too, but he looks damn good to me," she wrote.
