A few months ago, Tom Brady officially announced his retirement from the NFL. Following a very disappointing season with the Buccaneers, the 45-year old quarterback said goodbye. 

After his college career at Michigan, Tom Brady was selected by the Patriots with the famous 199th pick in the 2000 NFL Draft. When Drew Bledsoe got injured, Brady received the opportunity by head coach Bill Belichick and the rest is history. Six Super Bowls won with New England and one more with Tampa to become the greatest player ever.

Following that statement, Shedeur Sanders was asked if Tom Brady had become his mentor. “Yes, of course. We talk after every game. I’m sure he’s gonna text me in a second, but, all I was thinking was Brady Mode. If he could do it, I know I can do it. We’re just alike.”
