Tom Brady retirement: Brady is retiring from football after 22 years in the NFL, reports say

The end of Tom Brady in the NFL is confirmed. Tom Brady is retiring from professional football after 22 seasons, and seven Super Bowl rings.

ESPN journalists Adam Schefter and Jeff Darlington confirmed Brady’s retirement moments before the NFL posted in their social media accounts a homage to Brady’s career.

Brady won seven Super Bowls, six with the New England Patriots, and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in his first season.

The NFL and the sports world announced Brady’s retirement. It is, indeed, his final will. However, he hasn’t published or spoken publicly about it.

Brady was thinking about retirement years before the 2021 season. Nevertheless, he wanted to prove his naysayers wrong by going and winning a Super Bowl with a team that wasn’t the New England Patriots.

At the end of the 2021 season, Tom Brady was outspoken about Gisselle Bündchen’s desires and pain seeing Brady at the football field.

“My wife is my biggest supporter,” Brady said on his Siriusxm podcast. “She deserves [to get] what she needs from me as a husband and my kids deserve what they need from me as a dad, and I’m gonna spend some time with them and give them what they need, ‘cause they’ve really been giving me what I need the last six months to do what I love to do.”

“I said this a few years ago, [but that’s] what relationships are all about. It’s not always what I want. It’s what we want as a family.”

It is the appropriate time for Brady to say goodbye to the NFL. In 22 seasons, he craved an era becoming the mos laureated figure in football.
