Tom Brady attends Los Angeles Premiere Screening Of Paramount Pictures'"80 For Brady" at Regency Village Theatre on January 31, 2023 in Los Angeles, California. The seven-time Super Bowl champion made the announcement during an interview on the Herd with Colin Cowherd Monday.
"Decompression is important. You're on this hamster wheel for so long. It's a daily fight," Brady said. "I have an appreciation for so many people who are committed everyday to showing up and putting their max effort into their life and career, and I think for me, I want to be great at what I do.
Brady says he has people to support him in his growth and is looking forward to his FOX broadcasting job and catching up on other parts of his life that "need time and energy." It was announced last May that whenever Brady stepped away from his playing career, he would join FOX Sports as the network’s lead NFL analyst in a 10-year, $375 million contract, the Associated Press noted. "I'll get to the point right away. I'm retiring for good," he stated.
