Brady can now take one of those items from his defeat list and add it to his win column: his original 40-yard dash at the 2000 NFL scouting combine. Twenty-four years removed from participating in the NFL combine — and a year removed from officially retiring — Brady attempted to run the 40 again at 46 years old. His original 40-yard clocked in at 5.28 seconds.

Brady had two friends clock his 40-yard dash in the video, one clocking him at 5.18 seconds and the other at 5.12.

"24 years later, redemption is spelled T O M," Brady wrote in on social media.
