  • by

Tom Brady finally has time to reflect, with a bye week coming up his latest appearance on the Let’s Go! Podcast along with host Jim Gray and legendary former Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald served to talk about his plans for the future, where it seems the current Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback doesn’t see himself as a head coach.

Does Tom Brady have the knowledge to be a head coach?

“Obviously, I have a lot of experience playing, I have a lot of knowledge and there’s, I’d say, a lot of capabilities to do that (coaching in the NFL),” Brady said. “But the desire to do something like that is totally different. So I’ve enjoyed my abilities as a player and I think I’ve had so much intent and focus on being the best I could be as a player. Being a good coach, you have to have a lot of similar traits to what you had as a player, which is preparation, discipline, leadership, work ethic. And if you can put all those things together, yeah, you can obviously be a good coach. And I think a lot of the great coaches in history have done that.”

It is known that the seven-time Super Bowl winner has already reached an agreement with Fox Sports to become a television analyst when, if ever, his NFL playing career ends.

The calling to be an NFL head coach

For TB12 you have to have a vocation and a work ethic very similar to the one you have as a player to be a good head coach in the NFLhowever, although he did not close that door it is definitely clear that at least, at this time, his mind is not there.

“I think being a great coach is the desire to be a great coach. You know, not whether a player can become a coach,” Brady said. “I think having the knowledge to do football, but is this something that you’d want to do and enjoy in order to maximize and actualize your potential as a coach? Those are things for different people to answer. Some people love being in the arena and some people love talking about it. You know, it’s up to everyone’s desire to do what they want, but to have the opportunity to do it I think is pretty cool for former players as well.”
