Tom Brady has several anecdotes to share on his 22 years of NFL career as an ever-shining quarterback. So he talks about his eventful life through his new series on ESPN+, which is Man in the Arena. During his most recent episode of the series, the superstar quarterback talks about the most devastating and miserable season of his career, the 2008-2009 NFL season.
That was the season when Tom Brady sustained an ACL injury early in the very first week of the regular season. Brady tore his ACL when the then Kansas City Chiefs safety Bernard Pollard hit him on the knee, leaving him all miserable. The quarterback was then taken off the field, bringing him down for the remainder of the season.
