Tom Brady is sure he won’t have another unretirement

Tom Brady insists he won’t be returning to professional football again. He told Robin Lundberg of Sports Illustrated that despite the persistent rumors, he has no intention of returning to the gridiron.

“I’m certain I’m not playing again, so I’ve tried to make that clear, and I hate to continue to profess that ’cause I’ve already told people that lots of times,” Brady said.

“But I’m looking forward to my broadcasting job at FOX next year. I’m looking forward to the opportunity ahead with the Raiders, and we’re in the process of that, along with the other different things that I’m a part of professionally and in my personal life, just spending as much time with my kids as I can and seeing them grow up and support the different things that they have going on, and that’s a very important job, and I take them all pretty seriously.”
