Dolphins LB’s Twitter avatar shows him crushing Brady’s head

He has been inactive the past two weeks and has yet to make a tackle this season.

That’s because McCain changed his Twitter avatar to a Photoshopped photo of him squeezing the head of Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

McCain is only in his second season, so he may not know how bulletin board material is perceived in Bill Belichick’s locker room.

Over the years, Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has developed a bit of a protective demeanor when it comes to his quarterback Tom Brady.

After these public posts on social media, McCain likely won’t be the only one taking things personally.

The 3-3 Dolphins and the 6-0 Patriots are set to square off in Foxborough, Massachusetts, on Thursday night. “Give Tom that question and he’ll probably have a good answer”, Gronkowski said, drawing laughter from reporters. We’ve seen what they can do when they are mad.

He added, with a smirk, “I think that would be a penalty if he did that”. If he wants to do that, he’d have to give us 15 yards.
