Tom Brady, the best player in National Football League history according to the Sporting Base, has changed his mind. After initially retiring at the end of January at the age of 44, Brady has decided to come back for a remarkable 23rd NFL season.
You could say the reasoning behind Brady’s decision was related to unfinished business. He did not go out on top as a Super Bowl champion last year as the Buccaneers lost 30-27 to the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Divisional Playoff.
There is no doubt that Brady is still playing at an extremely high level at the quarterback position even though is 44 years of age. The native of San Mateo, California, Brady led the NFL last season in completed passes (485), passing yards (5316), touchdown passes (43), and yards per game (312.7).

According to the Associated Press, Brady’s retirement in fact lasted only 40 days. One might question how much of an impact Buccaneers owner Malcolm Glazer had in the decision. Brady spent time with the Glazer family over the weekend for an English Premier League soccer game between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur. Glazer owns the Buccaneers and Manchester United. By the way, ManU defeated Tottenham 3-2 on a remarkable hat trick by Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal, who scored in the 12th, 38th, and 81st minutes. Brady was witnessing European football greatness while being persuaded in coming back another year.
One person who has Brady’s support is Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians. He said the Buccaneers are “ecstatic” and “still playing at a championship level.”
