If you think we have been down this path before, we have. A year ago this week we reported that Tom Brady had announced his retirement after 22 NFL seasons with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Then in March of 2022, Brady changed his mind and played a 23rd NFL season.
On Wednesday, Brady announced his retirement again according to the Associated Press. This time it is apparently “for good.” According to Natasha Dye of People Magazine, Brady’s decision on Wednesday, generated a response from his ex-wife and Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen, who stated, “wishing you only wonderful things in this new chapter of your new life.” Brady and Bundchen divorced in October, and many believed Brady’s decision to play for the Buccaneers this past season was a contributing factor to the separation.
One might be a little bit surprised that Brady is retiring. That is because he still led the National Football League this past season in completions with 490, which set a NFL single season record.
