In a recent press conference, Brady was asked if this was his last season. The quarterback replied:

"I think we're all getting one day older at a time. We're all not sure whether we're going to be here next year or not, that's the reality for every player, every coach, every parent. You just never know. We should all take advantage of the opportunity that we have."

He and the Tampa Bay front office said the absence was known in advance and due to personal reasons. The quarterback turned 45 years old last month, which is also important. Brady has always said openly and in private that he would play until the age of 45.
