âThese past two months Iâve realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands. That time will come. But itâs not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. Iâm coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business LFG,â Brady tweeted on Sunday.
