Tom Brady is entering his 18th season the NFL and if we don’t look at his 2000 season as a back-up or his 2008 season on the injured reserve, Brady is hopefully going to play in his 16th season as a starter.
The 2017 season should mark the start of the third and final act of Tom Brady’s career. The first and second acts are nicely separated by his torn ACL in the 2008 season. I’ll propose that his final act be marked as “Post-DeflateGate” with his return from suspension and subsequent Super Bowl LI victory burying that ridiculous storyline for good.
