While Tom Brady hasn’t definitively stated when he will retire, it’s clear that his retirement is something that he holds full control over. It won’t be injuries or the Buccaneers deciding Brady’s fate — it’ll be the quarterback himself deciding when he’s done with football.
"Nothing Tom does surprises me. He's a great player, works hard, takes care of himself. He's talked about playing until 50. If anybody can do it, he probably can," Belichick said.
Even Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht had previously said he’d let Brady play until the age of 50. When one considers that quarterbacks can’t be hit below the knees, driven into the ground or hit above the neck, Brady doesn’t have to worry about hits — because physical hits are simply not allowed in the NFL anymore.
It’s no coincidence that Brady hasn’t missed a start due to injury since the 2008 season. Heck, Brady even showed off his right thumb injury following a Week 5 victory over the Miami Dolphins,Furthermore, this Buccaneers team is absolutely stacked. This is in stark contrast to Brady’s last season with the New England Patriots back in 2019, when a lackluster offensive line and receiving corps led to Brady frequently throwing passes away just to avoid being hit.
More than anything, age and having a banged-up body won’t end Brady’s career — it’ll either be the desire to spend more time with his family or the fact that he’s simply done it all.
