Retire Or Divorce? Tom Brady Could Face An NFL Ultimatum

We believe that Tom Brady will retire following the 2022 NFL season and that the quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers may not have a choice in the matter.

Brady will either have to quit football in 2023 or risk losing his wife, Gisele Bundchen.

If he wants to continue being married to Bundchen, Brady "knows that this is his last season" in the NFL.

Bundchen apparently didn't like Brady's choice to come out of retirement this past offseason 40 days after making his retirement announcement.

At 45 years old, Brady is now playing in his 23rd NFL season.

Bundchen doesn't mind that he plays football, but she disapproves greatly of the way he handled his retirement and return.

Brady understands that if he wants to stay married, this is his final season.

In addition to his temporary retirement, Brady missed 11 days of Buccaneers training camp for personal reasons.

Brady and his family took a trip to the Bahamas. Various rumours have also surfaced claiming Brady and Bundchen are going through a rough patch in their marriage, so it might be best if he hangs up his cleats when Tampa Bay's season ends.
