TAMPA, Fla. ― Tom Brady apologized Thursday for comparing the commitment he makes to playing an NFL season to a military deployment.
The 45-year-old Bucs quarterback opened his media session by saying he used “a very poor choice of words” while talking Monday on his “Let’s Go!” podcast about his lack of a work-life balance during the season.
“Earlier this week, I made a statement about playing football and the military, and it was a very poor choice of words,” Brady said Thursday. “I just want to express that to any sentiments out there that people may have taken it in a certain way, so I apologize.”
