A number of players will go down in the NFL history books, but none of them will leave the kind oflegacy thatTom Brady will. The successful quarterback, who made a strong case to be considered the GOAT, continues making historyat 44 years of age.

Playing his season No. 22, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback is once again on the quest for a Super Bowl ring. It has become something normal for him, and that’s not only because of histalent, winning mentality, and incredible work ethic.

Familyplays an important role in the life of any human being and athletes are not the exception. They’re always there, no matter if you win or lose. Fortunately, Tom Brady’s got a supportive family at home, even thoughhis wife Gisele Bundchen has admitted she didn’t like football at first.
