Tom Brady has managed to extend the prime of his career into his late 30s.
The New England Patriots quarterback is on pace for one of his most productive seasons and already has 3,320 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and just four interceptions in 10 games at the ripe old age of 38.
Brady’s season, and perpetual youth, is impressing the quarterback’s star tight end, Rob Gronkowski.
“I don’t think he ages to tell you the truth,” Gronkowski said in a conference call with the Denver media. “It seems like he’s always (been) in his 20’s ever since I’ve been here. He’s a hard worker, great guy, great guy to play with.”
Brady’s vigor is on the forefront this week as the Patriots prepare to face off against Peyton Manning’s Denver Broncos. Manning, 39, is having his worst NFL season and will miss Sunday night’s game with a foot injury, making way for backup Brock Osweiler to make the start.
