  • Brady attempted to high-five a referee, who snubbed him.
  • Brady's score gave the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a 29-20 lead over the Saints in the fourth quarter.

Tom Brady was so excited after running in a touchdown against the New Orleans Saints in the divisional round of the playoffs that he even tried to high-five a referee.

It didn't work.

With just over five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, Brady took the snap from the Saints' 1-yard line and plunged into the end zone to increase the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' lead to 29-20.

After celebrating with teammates, Brady attempted to high-five a ref, who had none of it.

Fox announcer Joe Buck even noted it, saying Brady was "shut out" by the official.

Brady's one-yard rushing touchdown was his third touchdown of the game - the other two came on passing touchdowns.

It was Brady's seventh career postseason rushing touchdown.
