From 2001 to 2019, he spent his first 20 seasons with the New England Patriots, where he was a key part of the franchise’s success. Brady is largely recognized as the all-time greatest quarterback.
Brady was drafted 199th overall by the Patriots in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft after playing college football at Michigan, earning him the nickname “the NFL’s biggest draft steal.”
During his second season, he was promoted to starter quarterback, and the Patriots won their first Super Bowl title in Super Bowl XXXVI.
