Skip Bayless Predicts How Much Longer Tom Brady’s Career Will Last

Trying to project when Tom Brady might hang up his cleats has become a fool’s errand.

The New England Patriots quarterback has shown no glaring signs of decline in his 19th NFL season, which will conclude with the 41-year-old’s ninth Super Bowl appearance.

Brady has expressed desire to play into his mid-40s, but that hasn’t stopped some from predicting he might call it a career following the Patriots’ tilt with the Los Angeles Rams on Feb. 3. But if you ask FOX Sports 1’s Skip Bayless, we all probably should just take Brady for his word.

Brady appears to be too prideful and has too much respect for the game to play in the NFL if he’s unable to perform at a consistently high level. As such, there’s a good chance his football livelihood is tied to how long his skills remain well above par.

How long will that last? Quite frankly, it’s impossible to guess.
