Tom Brady has finally confirmed his retirement. ESPN reported Saturday that the 44-year-old quarterback had made plans to retire, then his team said no decision had been made. But, in a Tuesday Instagram post, Brady himself announced his next move. In a statement, the seven-time Super Bowl winner wrote that he’s always believed playing football should be a 100 percent commitment, and went on: “This is difficult for me to write, but here it goes: I am not going to make that competitive commitment anymore. I have loved my NFL career, and now it is time to focus my time and energy on other things that require my attention.”
