- NFL’s all time passing yard leader
- Most career wins 243
- fifteen Pro Bowls
On Tuesday, February 1st Tom Brady announced his retirement on his Instagram. He said, “I have always believed that the sport of football is an ‘all-in’ proposition — if a 100% competitive commitment isn’t there, you won’t succeed, and success is what I love so much about our game. There is a physical, mental and emotional challenge EVERY single day that has allowed me to maximize my highest potential. And I have tried my very best these past 22 years. There are no shortcuts to success on the field or in life. This is difficult for me to write, but here it goes: I am not going to make that competitive commitment anymore. I have loved my NFL career, and now it is time to focus my time and energy on other things that require my attention.”
The announcement comes after ESPN’s Adam Schefter Tom Brady is retiring from football after 22 extraordinary seasons, multiple sources tell @JeffDarlington and me.
