Background and Education

Tom Brady was born on August 3, 1977, in San Mateo, California. As a young man, Tom Brady exceeded expectations at both football and baseball at Junipero Serra High School. In the wake of graduating in 1995, Brady left behind an opportunity to play pro baseball to go to the University of Michigan.

In spite of the fact that he was an official member of the school's football team, Brady did not get to spend much energy in the field in his initial two school seasons because he had better players ahead of him on the depth chart. In his junior year, he filled in as the starting quarterback. That season, Brady tossed 350 throws for 2,636 yards. In his last season, he helped lead his group to an Orange Bowl triumph.

Career

Tom Brady was drafted by the New England Patriots in the 6th round of the 2000 NFL draft. At first, he filled in as the backup quarterback and played in just a single game during his first season. The 2001 season was a different story for the young player. After starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe was harmed during a game, Brady dominated as his replacement.

There were 11 wins to 3 losses in the 14 games that Brady started. In the post-season, he helped the group secure a success over the St. Louis Rams at Super Bowl XXXVI, and Brady got the game's MVP honors.
