Tom Brady to Be Oldest Starting QB in NFL History After New Bucs Contract

Tom Brady is on track to become the oldest starting quarterback in NFL history after signing a one-year contract extension to remain with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers through the 2022 season.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported it's a four-year deal that can void after the first season, which makes it a team-friendly contract that saves the Bucs $19 million against the 2021 salary cap.

Albert Breer of The MMQB and ESPN's Field Yates analyzed the future Hall of Famer's longevity:
