Madden NFL players the world over are going to be able to have Tom Brady lead their digital teams to glory at least one more time. That's because the former New England Patriots and current Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback is no longer retiring.

Tom Brady announced his retirement last month, seemingly ending what is sure to be a Hall of Fame run. The 2021 season also happened to be inarguably one of his best individual seasons as he threw for 5,316 yards and 43 touchdowns to just 12 interceptions. That followed his Super Bowl-winning 2020 season where he had 40 TDs and 12 INTs. Those touchdown numbers were the highest since he threw 50 in 2007, but after 22 years the quarterback had seemingly decided to hang up the spikes.

The future Hall of Famer who has actually appeared on numerous Madden NFL covers added that he knows that retirement is coming for him at some point, but it's just not now. He finished by saying that he loves both his teammates and his supportive family but that he was also making it clear that he is returning for his 23rd season and is coming back to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for a third year.
