Tom Brady Loses Out on Millions After Betting on Himself

Tom Brady Loses Out on Millions After Betting on Himself New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady negotiated $5 million in incentives into his $15 million per year salary before the start of the season. The 41-year-old Brady did not hit any of the five incentives after having a subpar year, at least by his lofty standards. He agreed to the incentives, which required him to finish in the top five in the following categories: passer rating, completion percentage, yards per attempt, touchdown passes and passing yards. Brady’s numbers weren’t that far off his 2017 stats. But he did not keep pace with the numbers that many of the league’s gunslingers were putting up in 2018. At 41, it’s only it’s only a matter of time before Brady slows down. But now that it’s playoff time, it could be unwise to bet against the five-time Super Bowl champion.
