Tom Brady Retires Again, Before Dawn
Dan Lyons, Sports Illustrated:
A source told Sports Illustrated’s Greg Bishop that Brady called
the team around 6 a.m. ET. on Wednesday morning to inform them of
his decision, two hours before he announced the decision to the
rest of the world. He was weighing whether to retire until
Tuesday, and had decided he would either play for Tampa Bay or
retire, and would not join another franchise. ESPN’s Jeff
Darlington was first to report on the timing of Brady’s
decision.
Why in the world would you make a phone call like this at 6 in the morning? You call me at 6 a.m., someone better be dead or hospitalized.
