Who can forget that 28-3 Super Bowl comeback? Or, his five-time Super Bowl MVPs? Yes, we’re talking about NFL legend Tom Brady. He told Skimm Sports what it’s like watching from the sidelines, shared which women athletes inspire him, and revealed whether he’d ever come out of retirement.
Q: What’s your GOAT getting-ready song?
A: “Public Service Announcement” by Jay-Z.
Q: What’s your GOAT snack?
A: GOAT Gummies, of course. I made them to taste great and offer a better-for-you option.
Q: Who are the women athletes redefining their sport?
A: Serena Williams changed the game forever. Simone Biles is redefining greatness. Caitlin Clark and A’ja Wilson are showing how bright the future of women’s sports is.
Q: How has broadcasting given you a different perspective on football?
A: As a player, you’re locked in on your assignment — now in this new role, I get to share my love of the game with a wider audience. It’s made me appreciate the chess match of the game even more.
Q: Would you come out of retirement to play flag football at the next Olympics?
A: I’m pretty happy just talking about football right now and not getting run over by 300-pound linemen… but hey, I guess in flag, I’d be a little safer.
