Morning sports update: Tom Brady has reportedly discussed playing beyond age 45

On Monday, Tom Brady wrote a Players’ Tribune piece explaining what keeps motivating him as he enters a new chapter of his football career away from New England.

Also, fellow Boston sports legend Bobby Orr penned a note of his own, writing a letter to those working at Massachusetts General Hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tom Brady could play for more than two additional seasons: Tom Brady’s contract with the Buccaneers runs for two years, but would the 42-year-old play behind that point? It seems inconceivable, given Brady’s age, that he could continue playing at a high level in the NFL beyond 45.
