Tom Brady Drafted by the Expos
Tom Brady was selected in the 1995 MLB amateur draft by the Montreal Expos. The Expos chose him in the 18th round as a catcher, long before he became a professional football quarterback.
Brady attended Junípero Serra High School in San Mateo, California, and later the University of Michigan. During his college years, he played baseball in summer leagues and caught the attention of major league scouts.
The Expos saw potential in Brady’s athleticism and defensive skills behind the plate. He was one of many late-round picks that year, and his baseball career remained brief and minor-league.
While Brady never reached the majors, he pivoted to football and was later drafted by the New England Patriots in the 2000 NFL Draft. His baseball background is often cited as a footnote in his broader athletic biography. Tom Brady baseball reference
