The last few years have been interesting, to say the least for LeGarrette Blount. The veteran running back has won three Super Bowl rings in the last four seasons winning two with the New England Patriots before moving to the Philadelphia Eagles and getting the best of his former team last February.
After one season with the Eagles, Blount is on the move again with the signing with the Detriot Lions reuniting with former Patriots defensive coordinator Matt Patricia who is now a head coach. Blount took to Instagram this week sharing a picture of his three Super Bowl rings.

Among the 1,000-plus comments on Blount's Instagram post is some praise from a former Patriots teammate, Tom Brady. The five-time Super Bowl champion showed some love to his old running back even the third ring came at his expense, via TMZ Sports.
So, when LB posted his 3 rings on Instagram, Brady felt compelled to comment — saying, “You have EARNED them my brother!”
Brady is as classy as ever with this move. Winning the Super Bowl matchup with the Eagles back in February could've cemented his legacy as arguably the greatest quarterback of all time if he hasn't already, so it must've taken a toll on the superstar yet he was still gracious in defeat and showing respect for Blount and what he's been able to accomplish.
Unfortunately for Blount, his incredible run of Super Bowl success might be coming to an end in Detriot despite the team's upgrades this NFL offseason. Brady, however, may still be in the mix to win a sixth ring with the Patriots still considered to be a force to be reckoned with in the AFC.
