When you retire sleep-deprived and unshaven, sitting alone on a beach as the wind fiddles with your bed-head hair, you are officially done.
Brady threw nearly 14,000 passes over 23 years in the NFL, postseason included. Of course, it sounds silly saying “postseason included” when talking up the quarterback who played three full regular seasons in the Super Bowl tournament, 48 games in all, winning 35 of them, including seven on the biggest stage in sports.
An hour after he was drafted 199th overall by Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots, Brady told his Michigan friend Jay Flannelly, “I’m going there to take Bledsoe’s job.” During that 45-minute call in 2017, Brady was open to the possibility of playing beyond his current age, 45, if he felt he could still compete at a high level. He said his wife Gisele had signed off on him playing into his mid-40s.
“I think 45 is a pretty good number for right now,” Brady said then. “My love for the sport will never go away. I don’t think at 45 it will go away. At some point, everybody moves on. Some people don’t do it on their terms. I feel I want it to be on my terms.”
