Tom Brady is an American former NFL quarterback with an estimated net worth of $350 million. Widely considered the greatest quarterback in football history, Brady built his fortune over a 23-season playing career and has continued to grow it since retiring through broadcasting, ownership stakes and business ventures.
Early Life & Family
Brady was born on August 3, 1977, in San Mateo, California, the youngest child and only son of Tom Sr. and Galynn Brady. His father ran a financial planning business, and Brady grew up with three older sisters in a close-knit, sports-driven household. He attended San Francisco 49ers games with his family as a child, and by his junior year at Junipero Serra High School he was the starting quarterback on the football team, while also playing catcher on the baseball team.
Rise to Fame
After a modest college career at Michigan, Brady was famously drafted 199th overall in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft by the New England Patriots. He got his chance to start the following season after an injury to the incumbent quarterback, and led the Patriots to a Super Bowl title in his first year as a starter — launching one of the most decorated careers in NFL history.
Career History
Brady won six Super Bowl championships with the Patriots before signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020, where he won a seventh title in his first season with the team. Over 23 NFL seasons he earned roughly $333 million in career salary and set numerous league passing records before retiring for good in 2023. He subsequently signed a 10-year, $375 million contract with Fox Sports to become the network’s lead NFL game analyst, a deal running through the 2031 season, and in 2024 NFL owners approved his purchase of a minority ownership stake in the Las Vegas Raiders.
How They Built Their Wealth
The foundation of Brady’s fortune is his NFL playing salary, followed by his record broadcasting contract with Fox Sports. He has also built wealth through business ventures including his TB12 sports performance and lifestyle brand, his production company 199 Productions, endorsement deals, and his minority stake in the Raiders.
Personal Life
Brady has a son from a previous relationship with actress Bridget Moynahan. He was married to Brazilian model Gisele Bundchen from 2009 until their divorce in 2022, with whom he has a son and a daughter.
Between his record-setting NFL salary, a landmark broadcasting deal and an ownership stake in the Raiders, Tom Brady’s net worth is estimated at $350 million as of August 2026.
