After retiring in 2022 only to unretire 40 days later, Tom Brady now says he is walking away from professional football "for good."
The seven-time Super Bowl winning quarterback posted a video across his social media channels to say goodbye to his NFL career for a second time this morning.
"Good morning, guys. I'll get to the point, right away. I'm retiring, for good," said Brady from a cloudy beach.
"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. I won't be long-winded. You only get one super emotional retirement essay, and I used mine up last year, so really thank you guys so much to every single one of you for supporting me," he said.
Brady's retirement comes after a three-season run in Tampa, highlighted by a Super Bowl win in the 2020-21 season. Overall, the 45-year-old wraps up a legendary career as the NFL's all-time leader in passing yards and touchdown passes.
"My family, my friends, my teammates, my competitors — I could go on forever, there's too many," Brady added. "Thank you guys for allowing me to live my absolute dream. I wouldn't change a thing. Love you all."
This is a developing story.
