Tom Brady is officially the quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

It’s officially the end of an era.

Tom Brady is no longer quarterback of the New England Patriots.

Just three days after he shocked the sports world by announcing his plans to depart the only team he’s ever known — on St. Patrick’s Day, no less — the 42-year-old signal-caller has officially passed his physical, signed his contract, and joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in NFL free agency, per ESPN’s Jenna Laine.

Brady’s son Jack captured the moment for him on Instagram, taking a photo of his father signing the historic new deal:

Brady started off the post by noting that he’s “excited, humble and hungry” for this next chapter of his journey.
