Tom Brady retired from the NFL in 2023, but thanks to his body of work that saw him win seven Super Bowl titles and three MVP awards with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he continues to be a major figure in the sport and event beyond it.

Brady is currently under contract with FOX Sports as an NFL analyst, having previously signed a 10-year, $375 million deal. He is also a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders after his purchase was approved in 2024.

Outside the NFL, Brady has found success in business. His training brand NOBULL remains popular and even reached a $1 billion valuation early in 2026. His card shop business, CardVault by Tom Brady, has rapidly expanded and is now up to 14 stores.

CardVault is set to open three more locations in Austin, Texas, Los Angeles, California and Kansas City, Missouri.

By the looks of it, Brady is not slowing down any time soon when it comes to growing his brand beyond the football field.

On Tuesday, Brady's CardVault dropped more exciting news, revealing that all its card shops and online store will carry the Topps Chrome Football Retail products starting Wednesday.

Brady's CardVault co-founder Chris Costa delivered the news on social media, saying it's the "biggest announcement" he has ever made in the company's history.

Costa also stated that they will sell the products (blasters, mega boxes and hangers) at retail price, although their shops will impose certain limits since they expect things to be "chaotic" due to the massive demand for the items.

Brady, for his part, shared the development on his Instagram Stories.

"We got you," the NFL icon wrote.

There is plenty of anticipation for the Topps Chrome Football release since it's the first time since 2015 that Topps will release licensed football cards. Sports card company Panini previously held the NFL license to produce sports cards.

Fanatics, Topps' parent company, the NFL and the NFLPA have reached a 20-year deal for the company to produce NFL-licensed cards.
