Tom Brady filed a letter with the NFL and NFLPA confirming his retirement and making him eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2028, a league source confirmed to The Athletic. ESPN’s Adam Schefter was the first to report the news. Here’s what you need to know:

Brady retired from the NFL “for good” last week after 23 seasons but speculation of another return persisted due, in part, to his brief retirement in 2022.

The quarterback spent 20 years with the New England Patriots and won six Super Bowls with the franchise before going to the Buccaneers in 2020 and capturing his seventh career championship that season.
