Tom Brady - Could retire after postseason Brady plans to take time after Tampa Bay's postseason run concludes before deciding whether he'll return for a 23rd NFL season in 2022 or retire, Jeff Darlington and Adam Schefter... Impact Brady, 44, has previously spoken of his goal being to play through his age-45 season, but the possibility of his departure following the season is a topic that has started to gain traction within the Tampa Bay organization over the past three weeks, according to the report. Despite playing at a high level in 2021 -- he started all 17 regular-season contests and completed 67.5 percent of his throws for 7.4 yards per attempt and a 43:12 TD:INT ratio -- the seven-time Super Bowl champion wants to take a month or longer after the playoffs to assess how he feels physically and mentally while also gauging his family's desires. After a dominant win over the Eagles in the wild-card round, Brady and the Buccaneers will host the Rams in the divisional round Sunday.
