Future Hall of Famer and former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady decided to hang up his cleats and announced his retirement earlier this week.
For the first time since Brady’s announcement, his good friend and former Patriots teammate of eight seasons, current Tennessee Titans head coach, Mike Vrabel, reacted to the news, per Jim Wyatt of Titans Online:
“The one thing we’ve always said is that the definition of success is about the consistent longevity at a high level,” Vrabel said. “And he certainly did it at a high level for a lot of years, and this league will miss him. But there’s quarterbacks and players that will come along. We always say there will never be another so and so, but sometimes, most of the time, there usually is.”
