Tom Brady Jokes About What He Got from the Mannings After Retiring

Tom Brady joined Sports Illustrated’s Robin Lundberg this week to discuss a few topics, including the gift he received from Peyton Manning during his brief retirement.

The Buccaneers quarterback announced his retirement on February 1, before coming out of retirement on March 13.

During that brief time, Hall of Famer Manning sent Brady a two-page handwritten note and a bottle of wine to celebrate. Manning jokingly said he wanted those gifts back after the seven-time Super Bowl champion decided to return for the 2022 season.
