NFL Twitter wishes Tom Brady a very happy 44th birthday on Tuesday morning.

Tuesday marks another successful trip around the sun for Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady.

Yes, the seven-time Super Bowl champion was born in San Mateo, California 44 years ago on Tuesday. Despite being the No. 199 pick out of Michigan in the 2000 NFL Draft, Brady has gone on to become the undisputed greatest quarterback of all time. Brady plans to play in the NFL through his age-45 season, which means Buccaneers fans have two more years of celebrating The GOAT.

Here is how NFL twitter went about celebrating their beloved 40-something quarterback Tuesday.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady turns 44-years-young on Aug. 3

There are guys playing in the league who are half his age, including New York Jets rookie quarterback Zach Wilson, who is feeling very 22 today.

Despite being at an age where one retired athlete aggressively pursues his golf game, Brady is still chasing Lombardi Trophies. As if seven were enough…

Overall, Brady has become infinitely more likable since leaning into social media in his early-to-mid-40s. Frankly, leaving the Evil Empire New England Patriots has helped him out a ton as well. There is a good chance he has always been this humorous, but playing for Bill Belichick in Foxborough forbid that. For now, Brady is clearly living his best life on the Florida Gulf Coast.

Here is to Year 44 on Planet Earth for Brady being as good as Year 43 was last trip around the sun.
