Tom Brady recently disclosed how his family would react if he were to ever rejoin the NFL, despite having previously stated that he is retired “for good.”
Tom Brady won’t play with the feelings of his family when it comes to his decision to play football again.
The former quarterback described how his family would react if he were to decide to play in the NFL once again, following his announcement earlier this year that he was leaving the league “for good.”
On the October 9 episode of Let’s Go! featuring Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald, and Jim Gray, Tom said, “I can’t tease that,” in response to a joke made by guest Jimmy “MrBeast” Donaldson that the athlete could make a video go viral just by saying he’s returning to the league. My folks would get in touch with me. My kids used to call. They would mutilate me. I wouldn’t be able to come tonight.
Although Tom—who has children Benjamin, 13, and Vivian, 10, with ex-Gisele Bündchen, as well as a 16-year-old son Jack with Bridget Moynahan—agreed that it may be a “smart” way to obtain milliоns of views, he clarified, saying, “He’s not coming out of retirement.”
Furthermore, the seven-time Suρer Bowl champion has already engaged in the retired-unretired game. In February 2022, he declared his intention to hang up his cleats, but a month later, he decided to play one more season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
He went on, “I’ve used up your one retirement, one unretirement, that you’re allowed.”

In addition, Tom has a busy schedule these days. Apart from managing his enterprises and preparing to join Fox Sports as a broadcaster in the upcoming year, the 46-year-old has also obtained a stake in the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces and has turned into a team owner in the electric raceboat UIM E1 World Championship.
Naturally, Tom maintains a busy schedule as a father of three. Scroll down to view some of his family’s old pictures.
