Tom Brady's future in NFL has been determined as he deals with his rocky marriage with Gisele Bundchen.

Brady made his fans excited - but his family broken - when he announced his return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the 2021 season 40 days after announcing his retirement. But this time, he might retire for good to save his marriage with Bundchen.

On Sunday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport penned an article saying that the legendary quarterback "is heading into what is expected to be his final season in the NFL." However, he noted that this should be taken with a grain of salt somehow as Brady has not announced it publicly himself.

"He has never said it publicly, but multiple parties involved acknowledge that after last year's retirement and then unretirement, the end is coming. That is the understanding, that this is the final year," he said.

Rapoport then revealed that during the athlete's 11-day hiatus, Brady spent more time with his family. It was also said to be a part of the promise he made to his wife, Bundchen, saying that he would have a vacation with them for the first time in two decades.


Meanwhile, Brady was also asked about it in a recent news conference. Instead of confirming whether it would be his final year, he said that no one would know if they would go to the same place or not.

Still, he urged everyone to take advantage of every opportunity that comes on their way.
