Tom Brady officially ended his association with Championship side Birmingham City today, making waves across the sports world. The move comes after the seven-time Super Bowl champion joined the club as a minority owner back in August 2023, partnering with club owners Knighthead Capital Management LLC.
The Blues Thank Brady After Three Years
Brady wasn’t just a silent partner; he entered a full-on partnership, committing his time and his “extensive expertise.” Part of his role even involved him being chairman of an advisory board at the St Andrew’s club. Birmingham City announced his exit with a statement simply headlined ‘Tom Brady departure.’ The club didn’t hold back on their gratitude, stating they “expresses its sincere gratitude to Tom Brady for his involvement with and unwavering support for the club over the last three years.” They even added it was “truly amazing to have someone with Tom’s experience and passion associated with the club,” and they’re looking to build on that foundation. Despite his departure, Birmingham City is actually doing pretty solid, sitting top of the Championship on goal difference with 29 points after 15 games.
Brady’s Post-NFL Empire Just Keeps Growing
Let’s be real, Brady has been on an absolute grind since he hung up his cleats in February 2023, after an incredible 23 seasons in the NFL where he snagged six Super Bowl titles with the New England Patriots and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, not to mention three NFL MVP awards. Stepping away from Birmingham City is just one more chapter in his wild post-playing career. He’s clearly not slowing down, already snapping up a stake in the Las Vegas Raiders and becoming part of the ownership group for the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces. On top of that, you can catch him on your screens as a lead NFL analyst for Fox Sports.
Brady’s decision to step away from Birmingham City just highlights how incredibly busy his post-NFL life has become. What’s next for the legendary quarterback? Given his track record, it’s anyone’s guess, but you can bet it’ll be something big.
