End of career? Tom Brady breaks his silence

Only Tom Brady decides Tom Brady's future and the quarterback says he still hasn't done that despite reports to the contrary.

“I understand the environment we operate in, everyone wants to get the news before others,” said the 44-year-old NFL superstar in a podcast on Monday (local time) in his first public appearance since the weekend’s resignation reports. “It really takes me day by day, I try to evaluate everything well and make a very good decision for my family.”

On Saturday, ESPN reported, citing anonymous sources, that the decision had been made and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback would end his career. Numerous colleagues, the NFL itself and even one of his companies then congratulated him on his outstanding career with seven Super Bowl victories. "I tried to enjoy a nice weekend, but it didn't quite work out, there was a lot going on on my phone," he said. Brady doesn't want to be pushed Brady has been playing in the NFL for 22 years and has still shown strong performances despite being eliminated in the playoff quarterfinals. He is under contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for another season. Brady said in the podcast that he was aware that his decision would affect many people. “If I know it, then I know it and if I don’t know it, I don’t know it yet. “I will not allow myself to be pressured into a decision,” he said.

The playmaker expressed regret that Saturday's news had taken attention away from Sunday's two playoff games. There the Los Angeles Rams surprisingly won against the San Francisco 49ers and the Cincinnati Bengals against the Kansas City Chiefs and will now play in the Super Bowl on February 13th.
