Tom Brady reached a significant milestone on Wednesday, turning 45 ahead of the 2022 season — keeping alive his long-time goal of playing till his age-45 season.
Brady's birthday prompted another quarterback, Aaron Rodgers of the Packers, to consider how long he might play in the NFL. (Read: a reporter asked him whether he sees himself playing until his age-45 season, like his Buccaneers counterpart).
Rodgers left no room for interpretation in his answer:
"No, I don’t," he said. "But happy birthday, Tom."
