Brady OK'd this announcement because he's been known to balk when other people leak his plans. When his retirement leaked this winter he denied it before announcing and then coming out of retirement a short time later. It also came out that FOX wanted Brady to replace Troy Aikman before he returned to Tampa.
Excited, but a lot of unfinished business on the field with the @Buccaneers #LFG https://t.co/FwKlQp02Hi

Brady won't start his new job until at least the 2023 season.
