Tom Brady Exposes Shocking Reason for Leaving Patriots

Tom Brady is tackling some hard truths.

The veteran quarterback, who played for the New England Patriots for 20 seasons before joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020, has revealed that his connection with ex-coach Bill Belichick was a significant factor behind his move away from the Patriots.

In a newsletter published on March 24th, Tom expressed that after two decades, a natural strain had arisen between Coach Belichick and himself regarding our professional paths. This was because the New England Patriots were evolving as an organization in ways that didn’t align with where we were headed individually. He implied that this tension could only be addressed through a separation or by reevaluating our commitments.

Because he sensed a misalignment, the seven-time Super Bowl winner, who has children Benjamin (age 14) and Vivian (age 11) with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen, as well as son Jack (age 17) with ex Bridget Moynahan, detailed that he needed to carefully evaluate and reevaluate his commitments before making the switch.

He commented, “As I approached my forties with children still in school and carrying the marks of two decades of struggles, I pondered: what holds significance for me at this point in time?

Constantly acting as an astute athlete, Tom always made a pointed list of factors that mattered most to him in his professional endeavors. These included the abilities of his colleagues, monetary remuneration, and indeed, the leadership of the team’s coach.

Regarding his 2020 choice, he mentioned, “Ultimately, I selected Tampa over New England due to its overall superiority in around twenty factors. To put it simply, it scored higher on most aspects.

After Tom’s retirement from Tampa Bay and football in 2023, Belichick also departed from the NFL. Although Belichick, who is now 72 years old, hasn’t completely stepped away from the sport (as he currently coaches the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill team), Tom recently praised his former coach following his exit from the Patriots in January 2024.

Tom expressed his heartfelt appreciation on Instagram, saying he’d played for the greatest NFL coach ever, Coach Belichick. He believes he wouldn’t have become the player he was without Coach Belichick. He remains eternally thankful.

Read on to see how Tom has spent time with his kids since retiring from the NFL. 

Gisele Bündchen posted a family photo on Instagram in celebration of Tom Brady’s son, Jack, turning 14. In her caption, she expressed, “Happy birthday Jack! It’s truly wonderful to have you as part of our lives. Thank you for being an amazing big brother. We adore you so much!

With his Christopher Cloos x Brady sunglasses on, Tom revels in his Super Bowl victory alongside his daughter Vivian during the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ boat parade celebration.

Following his seventh Super Bowl victory, the quarterback from Tampa Bay rejoiced with his little girl Vivian.

In this heartwarming photograph taken by Gisele on Father’s Day, Tom shared a cozy moment with his children, Jack “John”, son of Bridget Moynahan, Vivian, and Benjamin.

Brady transitioned from being a player to coaching, spending time on the beach with his son, mentioning on Instagram that he’s his favorite workout partner using the hashtag “#dadsworkoutbuddy”.

Gisele shared this adorable photo on Instagram of Tom giving his son a kiss on the forehead.

The entire Brady-Bunch family assembled for a photograph at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta prior to Super Bowl LIII, which ultimately was won by the Patriots.

In 2018, during their Halloween celebration, Tom secretly hid and observed from a window, appearing as Pennywise the Dancing Clown.

As Tom prepared for another round of football, he paused to show affection towards his daughter, evidently capturing his complete focus on her at that moment.

In July 2018, the Brady family embarked on a family trip away from home, and they appeared absolutely joyful during their horseback ride excursion.

On Father’s Day, Tom enjoyed a family meal and took numerous goofy pictures with his young son, Ben.

It’s incredibly heartwarming to witness the all-time best quarterback, who boasts seven Super Bowl rings, being showered with affection from his trio of children.

Despite the fact that it was spring, Tom and Ben wrapped up snugly to spend an enjoyable day outdoors, which also included a bit of training.

Tom Brady as the Easter bunny? Who would’ve guessed?!

The super sweet family was all smiles during one of Brady’s episodes of Tom vs. Time.

Following another Super Bowl appearance, Tom spent some quality time off with his loved ones, which included leisurely barbecue meals and plenty of photo opportunities.

Despite the Patriots’ defeat at the 2018 Super Bowl, Tom still had a backup team prepared and on standby to lift his spirits.

Prior to Super Bowl LII, the New England Patriots’ quarterback was captured in photographs with his entire family, which comprised of his wife Gisele, eldest son Jack, their second child Ben, and youngest daughter Vivian.

Back in December of 2017, I, an over-the-moon fan, had the heartwarming pleasure of witnessing the New England Patriots’ quarterback extend a birthday wish to his second-born son. His message read, “Happy Birthday to the most adorable 8-year-old boy any parents could ever hope for! You’re overflowing with love and happiness! We couldn’t be more proud of you, Benny! And your light, oh it illuminates our lives each day in ways that leave us awestruck. We adore you.

On the verge of Thanksgiving, Vivian proved herself an exceptional assistant chef, with her father entrusting her the task of preparing the biscuits. And when it comes to skills, Brady seems to excel at almost everything.

On a crisp November day, the pair consisting of Tom and Ben lounged harmoniously in a hammock, and honestly, it leaves us yearning for such a peaceful retreat to be part of our immediate horizon.

Leave it to Tom to teach his son more than just football. 

In June 2017, the Brady family frolicked on the lawn, relishing their time together, and it certainly seemed as if they were having an amazing time.

Who says you’re too old to make funny faces?

After winning the Super Bowl in 2017, when the Patriots returned to Boston for the victory parade, Tom invited Ben with him, earning himself the title of the coolest dad.

2017’s Super Bowl victory was fantastic, but nothing beats the joy of sharing it with your daughter on the field – a moment truly beyond price.

Back in 2017, Vivian affectionately kissed her father good luck before he left for a match. Honestly, this duo is just too adorable!

Tom’s admirers stretch across great distances, yet it’s his three children who hold the title of his most ardent supporters. The sight of their “Brady” jerseys only serves to endear them further to us as a family.

It’s double the joy to adorn the Christmas tree when your cherished little girl assists, and it’s even more delightful when she’s in her enchanting fairy costume!

The football player enjoys spending his free time playing at the beach with his delightful children, and we wholeheartedly agree with this choice.
