Tom Brady isn’t retiring, after all.

On Sunday evening, the future Hall of Fame quarterback announced that he’s not ready to retire and will return to the NFL for his 23rd season. It appears he will remain with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the upcoming 2022 season.

“These past two months I’ve realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands,” Brady wrote on Twitter. “That time will come. But it’s not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. I’m coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business.”

Brady spent the last two years in Tampa Bay after a 20-year run with the New England Patriots. He guided the Buccaneers to a Super Bowl win following the 2020 season, just his first year with the franchise.

During his career, Brady has appeared in 10 Super Bowls and won 7. He’s looking to add an eighth ring to his collection this year.
