Brady played 23 seasons in the NFL. Twenty of those seasons were spent with the New England Patriots, where he won six Super Bowls. Three were with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he won another title.

Brady first announced his retirement in February 2022 before taking it back just 40 days later. He retired again after the 2022 season. Since retiring, he has worked as an NFL analyst for Fox.
