A familiar face was on hand Sunday in Foxboro. Actually, make that two familiar faces.
Bleacher Report’s extra-creepy Tom Brady mask, which made its debut last Sunday in Arizona, was spotted in the parking lot outside Gillette Stadium ahead of the New England Patriots’ home opener against the Miami Dolphins.

A Bleacher Report staffer donned the mask last weekend, but the man wearing it Sunday was none other than former Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker.

Welker also reunited with the real Brady this weekend, telling 560 WQAM the suspended Patriots quarterback had recruited him to play some catch while he was in town.
Brady is not allowed to practice with any of his current teammates until his four-game Deflategate suspension expires Oct. 3.
