Tom Brady retired for the second time from Pro Football last week at the age of 45. He said goodbye to the game last year too, only to come back sometime later to play another year in the NFL. But there is no indication that the legendary QB will do the same again. His words remain the bravest six days after the announcement.

When Brady came back last year, most fans thought he would end his career after winning an eighth Super Bowl ring. But he proved that he wasn’t chasing rings out on the field but played this long for the love of the game.

Tom Brady and the rich football legacy

Future Hall of Famer Tom Brady announced his retirement from the NFL in a short video on Twitter. And he stressed subtly through his words that he will not return to the field this time.

“I’m retiring for good. I know the process was a pretty big deal last time so when I woke up this morning, I figured I’d just press record and let you guys know first,” Brady said in the video.

Brady’s father Tom Brady Sr. has already put cold water on any possibility of his return as a player. According to the senior Brady, the QB is secure in his decision. And a variety of factors make this the ideal time to say goodbye to the millions of fans worldwide.

 A difficult year of the return 

Tom Brady’s first return from retirement was the most difficult period of his life. His wife and supermodel Gisele Bündchen parted ways with him over the decision. So, he lost his family due to his love for football. And he faced many challenges on the field during the season.

The QB’s form saw an unprecedented dip at the start of the season. And as a result, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers went on a losing run. But the team would have struggled with Brady as their run game failed to yield any results. The result is more pressure to pass on Brady and easy work for the opposing defenses.

But the QB led the team to another NFC South title through sheer magic and his on-field brilliance. But he and the Buccaneers fell at the first playoff hurdle against the Dallas Cowboys. Brady leaves his playing career as the ambassador of the sport to the whole wide world.
