How many more years will Tom Brady play in the NFL?
Brady was born Aug. 3, 1977, in San Mateo, Calif. At the time he was born, there had been 11 Super Bowls played; Brady would grow up to play in 10 Super Bowls himself.
After 20 years with the New England Patriots, Brady left his career-long comfort zone this past offseason as a free agent and signed a two-year, $50 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The next time he's a free agent will be the year he turns 45 years old.
It stands to reason that Tom Brady would retire at that time, but if he's still playing at an elite level at 43, who knows what Brady will want to do in two years? And who knows which (if any) NFL teams would be willing to pay Brady to play in two years?
Brady has thrown for 2,739 yards, 23 touchdowns and seven interceptions this season through Week 10. He currently ranks No. 1 in the NFL in completions, fourth in passing yards and passing touchdowns.
