Tom Brady has been the face of the NFL for more than two decades. The staggering weight of the QB’s accomplishments exceeds every known record. In an alternate universe where age didn’t restrict athletes from pushing their bodies to the maximum, Brady would’ve wanted to continue to make his mark in the NFL. However, TB12 announced his second retirement early this year, stating that he would be putting his playing career to rest “for good.”

The need for that clarification stems from his first retirement stint last year, which spanned 40 days. But now, it looks like TB12 and football have parted ways for good. But, another individual bearing the Brady name is beginning to make waves in the sports world. So, who is this special person?

Tom Brady has nothing but praise for a very special person

Maya Brady is a superstar in her own right. While her uncle Tom Brady’s fame may cast a shadow over her accomplishments, her rise to stardom in the softball arena is solely hers to claim. In 2020, Brady made her collegiate debut for the UCLA Bruins. Being named Softball American Freshman of the year and first-team All-Pac-12 are some of the highlights of her college career. And her uncle Tom Brady has been one of her loudest supporters.

Showering her with praise, the 7x Super Bowl champion recently took to Instagram Story to share a video of his niece.

Brady may have slowed his pace for more important aspects of his life

Tom Brady experienced a year of ups and downs on his personal and professional fronts. While the QB was already heading toward a downward slump in his playing career last season, his divorce from Gisele Bündchen didn’t help the situation. Many expected TB12 to return to complete his quest for an eighth title but the QB announced his retirement from the league.

However, the NFL world was looking forward to Brady’s second career in the broadcasting sphere. While plans were seemingly underway, they may be on hold at present. In the weeks after announcing his retirement, Tom Brady has been seen spending more time with his children. And perhaps, the QB is taking a step back to prepare for the road that lies ahead.
