Tom Brady Hilariously Jokes About Retiring After Reaching 1,000 Rush Yards

That’s it, New England Patriots fans: Tom Brady is all done.

Brady, of course, isn’t going anywhere. Although, if he isn’t careful next week against the Miami Dolphins, he could kneel his way back under 1,000 rushing yards.
