Despite the unpromising start, Brady will hope for a better year ahead

This comes as yet another blow in the seven-time Super Bowl champion’s life. After his brief retirement from the sport in early 2022, things have seemingly gone downhill for the quarterback.

The former couple has embarked on a co-parenting journey at present. Apart from this, the QB has seen a debilitating slump in his performance all season.
