Tom Brady breaks silence on retirement reports

Brady made it clear on the “Let’s Go!” podcast he is still weighing whether he was going to walk away from the NFL despite ESPN and the NFL Network reporting he is retiring after 22 seasons and seven Super Bowl titles between playing with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

“It was still a good week for me. I’m still going through the process I said I was going through. Sometimes it takes some time to really evaluate how you feel, what you want to do. I think when the time is right, I’ll be ready to make a decision one way or another like I said last week,” he told legendary sportscaster Jim Gray in the podcast interview.

Brady was asked whether he was surprised when the reports came out.

“There’s always a good line that I’m responsible for what I say and do and not responsible for what others say and do. Again, one thing I learned about sports is you can control what you can control, and what you can’t, you leave to others,” he said. “We’re in such an era (of) information, and people want to be in front of the news often, and I totally understand that and understand that’s the environment we’re in. But I think for me, it’s just literally day-to-day with me. I’m just trying to do the best I can every day and evaluate things as they come and try to make a great decision for me and my family.”

Brady lamented that the reports were overshadowing championship weekend.
