Tom Brady will be moving on from the New England Patriots, the team with which he won six Super Bowls.
Everyone knew that was a possibility as Brady hit free agency for the first time at age 42, but it was still a shock to see him announce it on Tuesday morning with a statement titled “Forever a Patriot” on his social media channels.
In it, Brady announced that his “football journey will take place elsewhere.”
Brady had a second part to his announcement in which he thanked Patriots fans.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers showed the most interest in Brady on Monday, the start of the so-called legal tampering period.
