Tom Brady Has Been Better In His 40s
2 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady has more passing yards and touchdown passes since he turned 40 than he did in his 20s. In his 20s, Brady had 21,564 passing yards and 147 touchdowns, while he has 22,938 passing yards and 168 TD passes in his 40s. He played 94 games in his 20s, while he's only played 81 games so far in his 40s. Brady will turn 45 during training camp this year after leading the NFL in pass attempts (719), completions (485), yards (5,316) and touchdown passes (43) at 44 years old in 2021. All of those marks were career-highs for him except for the TD passes. He's the oldest player ever to lead the league in passing yards or TD passes. We could go on with impressive career statistics from Brady, but you get the picture. He's not slowing down and will once again be a strong QB1 target in fantasy.
