Tom Brady Sets NFL Career Passing Yards Record

Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady set the NFL career passing record Sunday night against the Patriots, surpassing Drew Brees who previously held the record.

Brady became the league's all-time passing yards leader when he found wide receiver Mike Evans in his first return to New England since his 2020 departure.

The quarterback, who is in his 22nd season in the NFL, entered Sunday night's contest just 67 yards shy of Brees's record. Brees, who is an analyst with NBC, was in attendance for Sunday Night Football when Brady broke his record.
