The greatest quarterback of all time announced his retirement on Wednesday morning, and this time it will be “for good.” This means that Tom Brady’s next stop will be Canton, Ohio: he is a lock to be enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility, taking his rightful place among the best players the NFL has ever seen.
When will he do that, though? Per rules, players have to wait five years before being eligible.
For Brady, this means he will be on the ballot for the first — and only — time in 2028.
