Tom Brady’s short-lived retirement this offseason was perhaps the biggest story in all of the NFL and his second—and presumably final—retirement has been a major talking point with the 44-year-old everywhere he goes. He was once again asked how much longer will he play in the NFL, and again he gave a pretty vague answer.
In his cover story for Variety, the Buccaneers quarterback was plainly asked when he thinks he’ll be done with football.
“I really don’t,” Brady told Variety. “I would say it’s year to year: Could this be my last year? Absolutely. Could I change my mind? Absolutely. I’ve realized I don’t have five years left. I want to do it my way. I want to give it everything I got and see where I’m at. My body feels really good. I’ve had a lot of traumatic injuries over the years, but if things go really smoothly and we win, that’d be great.”
