In the past two weeks or so, Tom Brady and Dale Earnhardt Jr have been the most mentioned names in the American sporting circles, although for different reasons. The NFL legend was a cause of headlines amidst the uncertainty regarding his future, while the NASCAR legend was in the spotlight after he was inducted in the Hall of Fame.

But it should also be pointed out that both the icons recently announced a collaboration in the growing NFT marketplace. And this collaboration recently went live.

Tom Brady posted on his Instagram story in which he tagged Dale Jr. and congratulated him. The QB had shared a post of his brand Autograph which is an online platform that sells NFT collectibles.

And the post that Brady shared on his story had the caption, “To celebrate the launch of his collection, we teamed up with @DaleJr to surprise our top 700 collectors with an Autograph racing helmet.”

Is Tom Brady set to join Dale Earnhardt Jr in retirement?

In the past few days, it was reported by most major publications that Tom Brady was hanging up his boots after 22 seasons in service of the sport. But just as this news spread like wildfire, a conflicting report began to emerge.

And that report suggested that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers man wasn’t really done yet. That he hadn’t made up his mind on retirement, that he was nowhere close to reaching such a decision.

So it will be interesting to see if Tom Brady, inarguably the greatest ever in the history of the NFL, will finally take the call and step away from the football field with seven Super Bowl rings.

And if he’s worried about what life after retirement is like, whether he’ll remain close to his passion for the sport or not, Tom Brady should look no further than Dale Earnhardt Jr.
