Tom Brady may be retired from the NFL, but he continues to garner interest, thanks to his body of work during a legendary career.
On Friday, Brady drew the attention of fans once again after the NFL posted headshots throughout his incredible career. TB12 played 23 seasons in the pros, 20 with the New England Patriots and his final three years with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Brady, who was selected 199th overall by the Patriots in the 2000 NFL Draft, underwent plenty of physical changes (and hairstyles) throughout his time in the league — having arrived as a 22-year-old and playing his final campaign as a 45-year-old.
"Before the rings, during the rings, after the rings," the NFL wrote in the caption of its post, which featured 13 headshots of Brady.
Fans took notice of Brady's change in physical appearance through the years, with many noting how he aged well.
"This man aged backwards because why does he look so much better in the later years than the younger years," a commenter wrote. Another one said, "bro aged hella well."
"man he has the best facials," a fan added.
"Nah this man got cloned every year," a supporter remarked.
A follower stated, "Bro casually got hotter."
"He lost weight around his face and jawline," a social media user noticed.
A seventh poster joked, "This is a different person every year."
Several fans called out the NFL for not including Brady's long-hair era, which came midway through his career. The seven-time Super Bowl champion's decision is still questioned by many today.
