Tom Brady Jokes That His Family 'Would Kill' Him if He Unretired Again: 'I Wouldn't Be Around by Tonight'

The former quarterback said, "You're only allowed one un-retirement, and I've used it up," on a new episode of his SiriusXM podcast this week

Tom Brady has no plans to return to the NFL, apparently much to the approval of the former quarterback's family.

During a new episode of his SiriusXM podcast Let's Go! with Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray, Brady, 46, joked that his family would "kill" him if he tried to unretire from football for a second time.

Brady and his co-host Gray sat down with YouTube star Mr. Beast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, this week. Donaldson, 25, jokingly suggested ratings on the episode would "take off" if the Super Bowl champ faked a second unretirement.

Brady laughed at Donaldson's promotional pitch, calling the proposed stunt "smart" before he said, "I am NOT coming out of retirement." Gray jumped in, “Tommy, take the advice, try it again!”

Brady shut down the suggestion, saying, "I can't tease that" during the interview. "My parents would call, my kids would call. They would kill me. I wouldn't be around by tonight," he said jokingly.

Gray told Donaldson that his co-host "already did that once," referring to his decision to return to the NFL one month after announcing his initial retirement in February 2022.

Brady's co-host then teased the YouTube star about needing a "more original" idea to entice listeners to the show.

The former NFL star explained, "As I said, you're only allowed one un-retirement. And I've used it up." Brady continued, telling Donaldson "at this point" he's just hoping to earn some credibility with his kids, who are apparently big fans of Donaldson's online persona.

"So at this point, I'm just looking forward to being in more of your videos 'cause my kids don't think I'm s---," he said.

Brady suggested during the interview that the YouTuber likely has more pull with his three kids than he does due to his popularity with young viewers.

"At the end of the day, you know, Jimmy's the one that, he's got their attention. So if he tells 'em to do something, he's got a lot more influence than I do. So I'm actually trying to stay on their good side," added Brady.

The former quarterback is a father to son John "Jack" Edward Thomas with his ex-girlfriend, actress Bridget Moynahan. He also shares two children with his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen — Benjamin Rein and Vivian Lake.

Donaldson told the father of three, "Yeah, come on down. It'd be fun to have you as a contestant. Imagine my viewers, they just click on a video and it's like a hundred people competing and then just randomly it's Tom Brady. They'd be like, what the heck? It'd be so funny.”

Brady replied, “I'll do it. We just gotta make a competition that I'm somewhat decent at. You can't bury me alive or something like that!”
