Robert Kraft was in a great mood while toasting tequila shots with Patriots fans before Sunday’s 32-16 loss to the Jaguars at Wembley Stadium in London.
The Patriots owner, 83, made an appearance at Greenwood Sports Pub and Kitchen, where he praised his team’s London fan base while addressing the crowd over a microphone on Saturday, as seen in a video exclusively obtained by The Post.
“We were driving to dinner and I was so inspired by all of you,” Kraft said as legions of fans captured the moment on their phones.
“We’re gonna do a shot of tequila… I want to say thank you to all of you!”
Kraft then took a shot while the crowd went absolutely crazy.
“You guys are amazing! Please bring that spirit to the field tomorrow,” he said before fist-bumping some fans.
Fanatics founder Michael Rubin, who was standing behind Kraft at the bar, was seen throwing back a shot.
Fans were heard chanting Kraft’s name in a song in another clip obtained by The Post.
Things were likely somber on Sunday after New England was routed by the Jaguars in their sixth straight loss.
Jacksonville did a better job of controlling the ball, scoring four straight times after trailing early, 10-0.
Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye went 26-for-37 for 276 yards and two touchdowns in his second career start.
First-year head coach Jerod Mayo called his team “soft” after the game.
“Back to the drawing board,” Mayo said. “We can’t sit here and pout.”
Former Patriots coach Bill Belichick, who parted ways with the team in January after 24 seasons and six Super Bowl wins, didn’t agree with Mayo’s comments.
“It’s a lot of the same [players from last year]… I’m kinda hurt for those guys because to call them soft, they are not soft,” Belichick said during his weekly appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” on Monday.
“They were the best team in the league last year against the run… I feel bad for the defensive players on that one… That’s a tough group.”
