    TOM BRADY 
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
  
CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
  
Tom Brady is a celebrated American football quarterback with a career spanning 23 seasons. He played for the New England Patriots (2000-2019) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2020-2022). Brady is considered one of the greatest NFL players of all time and has set numerous records. Brady has 7 Super Bowl wins and 5 Super Bowl MVP awards, both records. He has also won 3 NFL Most Valuable Player awards. He is the all-time leader in passing yards and touchdowns, and has won more games than any other quarterback in NFL history. He has been named to the NFL's All-Decade teams for both the 2000s and 2010s. 
  
CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
  
Tom Brady's college career at the University of Michigan saw him complete 395 of 638 passes for 4,773 yards and 30 touchdowns. His time at Michigan included a redshirt year in 1995, and he played from 1996 to 1999. 
  
In 2015, the NFL published a 243-page report about the deflation of footballs used in the AFC Championship Game, concluding that Brady was likely aware of the intentional deflation. Brady was suspended for four games by the NFL due to his involvement. 
  
A sportswriter revealed that the NFL falsified data and hid information that would have cleared Brady and the Patriots of wrongdoing in the "Deflategate" scandal. It was also noted that 11 of 12 Patriot footballs were not outside the predicted range of the Ideal Gas Law. 
  
NFL executives reportedly did not know about the Ideal Gas Law, which explains how air pressure in a football can change in certain environments. NFL general counsel Jeff Pash ordered that the records of all PSI data gathered from the 2015 season be deleted.
