Tom Brady’s incredible career earnings revealed the NFL star would earn more from broadcast than from football

TOM Brady has made a staggering amount of money during his NFL career – but he’s still raking in more of it.

The 45-year-old quarterback announced his retirement Wednesday morning.

He’s leaving after 23 seasons in the league and after winning seven Super Bowls.

Brady’s career wins also tell a remarkable story.

They show how the quarterback took home less money during his years with the New England Patriots.

And that should give the team more leeway to sign other players.

And his most lucrative years as a player were his final two years as a member of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Brady earned $333 million in salary over his 23 seasons as a player.

And what’s notable is that he’s set to earn $375 million in a 10-year deal with FOX Sports.

Brady will be an analyst for FOX’s NFL coverage – and is expected to take up a position in the commentary booth.

Here are his full NFL career earnings, according to Spotrac:

• 2000: $231,000
• 2001: $372,000
• 2002: $3.8 million
