He’s not just getting older. He’s getting faster.

The 46-year-old Tom Brady set out to beat his 2000 NFL Scouting Combine 40-yard dash time — and did it.

In a workout video for NoBull posted on his X account, the seven-time Super Bowl winning Brady revealed that he ran a 5.28-second dash in his NFL Combine workout many years ago.

Contrast that with the time run this year by 6’3, 254-pound Penn State lineman Chop Robinson, who ran a 4.48 40 on the first day of the combine.

Brady was never known for his speed as he compiled one of the greatest careers in NFL history. But he knew that he could better that mark from long ago. Thus, he posted to his X account the challenge he undertook.

“This is not the true measure of a man, let me just that straight” Brady said on video as he drove to his workout. But, he added, “I will give you 100 percent chance of effort.” he later added before the run.

Brady pulled off the challenge, running a 5.18 on one stopwatch and a 5.12 on another.

“24 years later, redemption is spelled T O M,” he wrote on X.

In a subsequent post, Brady set a lofty goal for himself for his next time out.

“Sub 5.00 next year. Level up,” he wrote on X.

Brady is expected to be Fox‘s No. 1 analyst for the next NFL season.
