"It's really cool for me and the position I'm in," Brady said. "I look back when I was that age, to have had the opportunity that some of these kids are getting is really cool."
Brady's new clothing line is launching Jan. 12, 2022, and the first release will focus on training wear and casual clothing.
"My apparel line has been in the works for like three-and-a-half years, so it's kind of cool that it happened at this time," Brady said.
College athletes have been able to profit off of their name, image and likeness since the end of June, and they are able to endorse products, companies and services such as Brady's apparel.
