Tom Brady is widely regarded as the greatest football player of all time. So far in his career, he has won 7 Super Bowl rings. No other player in the game’s history has won more than Brady. Notably, he has won at two different franchises, i.e., New England Patriots and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

However, he did not have an easy start. Doubts loomed large over Brady making it to the NFL, as he wasn’t getting picked by any team in the NFL Draft 2000. At last, the New England Patriots decided to take a chance on him.

The Patriots drafted Tom Brady with the 199th overall pick in the NFL Draft 2000. Usually, when a quarterback is picked so late in the Draft, he rarely gets to play in the league. Not even did Brady get a chance to play in the league, but he has had the most glorious career ever among all the players in the game’s history.
