Why did Tom Brady come out of retirement? One big reason Brady decided to come back is because he knew he still wanted to play, which might not be the case down the road. The 44-year-old — who turns 45 in August — admitted that he might soon lose his hunger to play. “I had the appetite to compete, and it’s going to be gone soon,” Brady said.
