Tom Brady Once Again Stokes Rumors About Coming Out of Retirement

Even after kicking off his lucrative NFL on Fox gig, Tom Brady will never stop teasing fans that he might someday come out of retirement and get back out onto the field himself. Case in point, the seven-time Super Bowl champion showed that his throwing arm is as good as ever in a new video this week.

The 47-year-old launched the inaugural episode of a new vlog on Wednesday, Last Week with Tom Brady, which he had spent jet-setting around Europe to attend the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris. Early into the video, while lounging shirtless on a yacht in Italy, Brady threw a pass to Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin, who was riding on the back of a nearby jet ski.

Although Rubin missed the first catch, Brady admitted that he's basically flexing for social media at this point.

"I just want to make sure those young bucks in the NFL know that if I still wanted to come out of retirement, they still got something to deal with," he noted. And sure enough, his second throw squarely hit its moving target.

When asked where he ranks Rubin on his all-time wide receivers list, Brady quipped: "However many I've played with, he's the one after that."

Oddly enough, this isn't the first time Brady has teased coming out of retirement with a trick shot on a yacht, of all places. Last summer, while giving YouTube star MrBeast a tour of his own $300,000 million yacht, he took down a drone midair with a football. "All right, if I hit the drone on the first try, maybe I should come out of retirement," he said at the time.

But whether or not Brady is seriously considering reviving his two-plus decade long NFL career, he also gave away the secret to his golden arm, when asked about the most important secret he learned when he was still developing.

"So number one is always point your lead shoulder at the target," he explained. "And then one thing as I got older, instead of swinging my left arm open to create torque, I would leave my left arm in front of my body and I would torque around my left arm."

Apparently, it's that easy! You can watch the full nine-minute video below.
