New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was glad to be one of the few quarterbacks to avoid the verbal wrath of Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey.

In a now-infamous GQ interview before the season, Ramsey blasted several highly regarded NFL pivots, but mentioned Brady on his short list of signal-callers that don't "suck."

"I never want to suck," Brady told reporters Wednesday when asked to respond to Ramsey's assessment. "I don't want to be in that category."

While Ramsey didn't expand much on his analysis of Brady, the future Hall of Fame quarterback offered a longer breakdown of Ramsey, who's become one of the game's top corners since entering the league in 2016.

"I mean, he's a great player," Brady said. "Yeah, he's very talented - big, fast, very rare talents, rare abilities, size, speed. They match him up with the top receiver from time to time, and he holds his own versus everybody. So, he's a great young player."

Brady and the Patriots are set to take on Ramsey and the Jaguars on Sunday in a rematch of last year's AFC Championship Game.
