Tom Brady has officially retired from the NFL.
In his 23 seasons in the league, Brady established a legacy that is unlikely to be matched by another quarterback.
His constant dominance, both in the regular season and in the playoffs, has led to many people dubbing him the greatest quarterback of all time.

Brady threw for over 89,214 career passing yards and 649 touchdowns, and ended his career with a 97.2 passer rating.
Additionally, Brady added 13,400 playoff passing yards, 88 touchdowns, and a passer rating of 89.8.
He holds so many records, that we’re not even going to try and begin to list them all.
It’s worth noting, however, that Brady is the oldest quarterback to ever start in an NFL game, and is subsequently the oldest quarterback to start in a Super Bowl.
By all accounts, he should be a first-ballot Hall of Famer, and his legacy will be cemented in both the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ organizations.
Brady even has a movie that is coming out about him, called “80 for Brady,” in addition to the other docu-series that was created, “Man in the Arena.”
In the coming months, Brady will have many decisions to make about his future.
Will he head to the broadcast experience in 2023?
Or, will he take a year off, spending time with his friends, children, and extended family?
The world will be watching.
It’s not every day that one of, if not the best quarterbacks of all time retires, let alone for the second time.
