Look: Tom Brady explains Decision to Come Out Of Retirement

Tom Brady may have been playing golf on Wednesday night, but most of the media attention was on the football side of things. Brady shocked the NFL world earlier this year when he came out of retirement just two weeks after announcing his decision to hang up his cleats.

 

 

The NFL legend was asked about the decision following his and Aaron Rodgers’ victory against Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen in Capital One’s The Match on Wednesday. Brady revealed free agency played a big role in his decision.

“At this stage, it’s like 55% yes and 45% no. It’s not 100-0. That’s just the reality,” Brady said in a roundtable on TNT after he and Aaron Rodgers defeated Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen in “The Match” golf event in Las Vegas.

“It’s not that I’m not 100% committed. It’s just as soon as I make the commitment to do it, it’s like ‘Ugh. All right, here we go.’ It’s like running a marathon,” he said. “You can’t decide two weeks before the marathon, ‘Hey, I’m going to start running.’ We got right to free agency and I felt some pressure to do it and talked to the team and organization, and it all worked out.”

Brady, who will turn 45 in August, later said he was “partly” ready to retire. “I think when you’re their [Mahomes and Allen’s] age, if you were to ask me, ‘Are you going to play football next year?’ I would say there’s a 100% chance I’m playing. And I think, as I’ve gotten older, that’s changed because I have other responsibilities,” Brady explained.

“So the responsibilities are many people taking care of me and things that I have off the field that are really important to me, like my family, my kids. My wife’s done an amazing job of that. That’s a big commitment from her, so it’s harder when you get older,” he added, via ESPN.

“I don’t even think they know what’s coming. Aaron knows these things because your life gets bigger as we all do, our life gets more full … there’s more responsibilities.”

 

 

Last season, Brady threw for a career-high 5,316 passing yards with 43 touchdowns and 12 interceptions to lead the Buccaneers to a 13-4 record and the NFC South crown.

After beating the Philadelphia Eagles in the opening round of the playoffs, Tampa Bay fell to the eventual Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round. The Bucs’ comeback was thwarted in the final seconds.
