Brett Favre 'not surprised' learning of Tom Brady's departure from Patriots

Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre knows a thing or two about joining a new team in his 40s. And if there’s anyone who Tom Brady should turn to for advice while making the transition from the New England Patriots to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, it’s the “Iron Man” of the NFL.

Favre, a three-time league MVP and Super Bowl champion, moved on from the Green Bay Packers after 16 seasons and went on to join the New York Jets and Minnesota Vikings before finally retiring at 41 years old after the 2010 season.
