Tom Brady has been having a down year, considering the great level that he plays. During the training camp this year, he went on an 11-day break from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, about which he said following his team’s preseason finale against the Indianapolis Colts, “Everyone has different situations they’re dealing with and we all have unique challenges to our lives.”
He also added, “I’m 45 years old, man. There’s a lot of shit going on, so you just have to try and figure out life the best you can. You know, it’s a continuous process.”
The Buccaneers have a difficult upcoming schedule in the league, where they will be facing off against divisional rivals Carolina and Atlanta in Week 16 and Week 17 respectively. The team needs to win at least 6 out of their next games in order to achieve a great record for the season.
