Prev Article Next Article

Tom Brady is an American football quarterback who plays for the National Football League’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers (NFL). He spent the first 20 seasons of his career with the New England Patriots, where he was a key player to the franchise’s dynasty from 2001 to 2019. Brady is largely regarded as the best quarterback in NFL history.

Early life

Tom Brady was born on August 3rd, 1977 in San Mateo, California to a sports-obsessed family. He is Galynn and Thomas Brady’s only son and fourth child. Nancy, Julie, and Maureen are his three older sisters. He was raised in a Catholic household. He grew up going to San Francisco 49ers games with his family.

Joe Montana was a favourite of his. He grew up a Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics devotee. As a child, he attended football camp at the College of San Mateo, where future NFL quarterback Tony Graziani was his camp leader and taught him how to throw the football.

Graduation

Brady graduated from Junipero Serra High School in San Mateo in 1995, where he participated in football, baseball, and basketball. During his junior year of high school, he was named the starting quarterback for his team. During his senior year, he created highlight films and sent them to institutions where he thought they would be interested.

Athlete recruiting at colleges was substantially different in the mid-1990s. Brady would be a four-star recruit if he graduated from high school today. Back in 1995, these rankings were not commonly used. Tom Brady whittled down his college options to Cal, UCLA, USC, Michigan, and Illinois.

Brady was also selected in the 18th round of the 1995 MLB Draft by the Montreal Expos. Brady has signed a letter of intent to play collegiate football for the University of Michigan.

Brady was the backup quarterback for the first two years of his college career (behind future NFL QB Brian Griese). Brady had a difficult time finding playing time. During the 1998 and 1999 seasons, he started every game.

He set new Wolverine records for most pass attempts and completions in a season during his first full year as a starter. Michigan won 20 of the 25 games in which Brady started. Despite an outstanding college career, he was not selected early in the draught. The New England Patriots selected Brady with the 199th choice in the sixth round of the 2000 draft.

Career

Brady is regarded as the biggest “steal” in NFL Draft history due to his late selection. He went on to become the team’s starting quarterback in his second season and remained with the Patriots for the next 20 seasons; setting an NFL record for seasons as a quarterback for one franchise.

He is one of just two quarterbacks in history to win a Super Bowl in their debut year as a starter. Brady is the most successful quarterback in NFL history, and he never had a losing season as a starter with the Patriots.

He was the Patriots’ quarterback who won the most division titles (16) in NFL history. He is the all-time leader in playoff wins and appearances for an NFL player, with a postseason record of 30–11. Since 2011, Brady has guided the Patriots to an NFL-record eighth consecutive AFC title games (and 13 overall). Brady has also been named to 14 Pro Bowls, tying the NFL record for the most selections.

He was suspended for the first four games of the 2016 season for his alleged involvement in the football-tampering controversy known as Deflategate. Brady and the Patriots went on to win two more Super Bowls.

Tom Brady announced his departure from the New England Patriots to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in March 2020. While in Tampa, he apparently leases Derek Jeter’s opulent custom-built beachfront property for $70,000 per month.

Tampa Bay contract

Tom’s contract with Tampa Bay is worth a minimum of $50 million over two years. Every year, he will essentially get a base salary of $15 million-plus a roster bonus of $10 million. If he meets certain objectives, the contract may pay him up to $60 million. Tom really declined a larger contract from the Patriots because it was not fully guaranteed.
