Even though he has shown very few signs of slowing down, Tom Brady cannot escape the fact that he turned 42 earlier this month. Unless, of course, he consults the official New England Patriots roster sheet.
One of the rosters the Patriots put out ahead of their preseason game against the Tennessee Titans this week had a small typo — or was it? Brady suddenly aged backwards 20 years, as he was listed as 22 years old. The six-time Super Bowl champion was so pumped about it that he called attention to it in his Instagram story.

That could have been an error, or it could have be someone in the Patriots organization sending the message that Brady isn’t your typical 42-year-old. Though, we already knew that.
There have been some rumblings recently that this could be Brady’s last NFL season because of a curious real estate decision he and his family have made, but he probably has a few years left. If he can convince himself he’s 22, it may even be more than a few.
