Tom Brady has no plans to retire any time soon
How much longer might Tom Brady play? Turns out his wife is wondering that same thing. In an interview with Sports Illustrated’s Peter King, Brady answers the question this way: “My wife [Gisele Bundchen] said to me, ‘When I met you [in 2006], you said you wanted to play 10 more years. How come that number never goes down?’’’ says Brady. “It’s that I love the game. I love the game. I’m going to play until they tell me they don’t want me anymore.’’ Brady, who turns 35 in August, has a contract through the 2014 season. “I still feel like I’m in my first year trying to prove myself,’’ he says. “There’s no entitlement around coach (Bill) Belichick. I’ve got to be the best guy for him to keep playing me. When I’m not, someone else will play.’’
