Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady has officially announced his retirement.

Brady is the NFL’s all-time passing leader for yards (84,520) and touchdowns (624), as well as quarterback wins (243).

The seven-time Super Bowl champion confirmed his decision in a lengthy post shared on his verified Instagram account.

“This is difficult for me to write, but here it goes: I am not going to make that competitive commitment anymore. I have loved my NFL career, and now it is time to focus my time and energy on other things that require my attention.”

The San Mateo native spent his first 20 seasons with the New England Patriots, leading the franchise to an NFL record six Super Bowl championships (tied with the Pittsburgh Steelers), before joining the Bucs as a free agent in March 2020, which resulted in Tampa Bay winning its second Super Bowl in franchise history, becoming the first NFL team to win a Super Bowl in its home stadium, last February.

The Miami Dolphins hired San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel as their head coach.

McDaniel replaces Brian Flores, who was fired despite posting winning records in the final two of his three seasons in Miami.

Flores sued the NFL, the Dolphins and two other teams last week over alleged racist hiring practices for coaches and general managers, saying the league remains “rife with racism” even as it publicly condemns it.

McDaniel had worked under 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan for the past 11 seasons and gets his first shot as a head coach after only one year as offensive coordinator.

McDaniel was credited for his role in developing San Francisco’s creative running game that featured receiver Deebo Samuel as a running back at times, along with other wrinkles.

Carlos Beltran has been hired by YES Network as a game analyst and is expected to call 36 games.

The 20-year veteran emerged as an intriguing candidate for YES, which was looking to fill a void left when David Cone joined ESPN’s “Sunday Night Baseball” team and Ken Singleton retired.

That opened the door for Beltran, who has been away from the game since he was dismissed as Mets manager in January 2020, less than three months after he was hired, in the wake of the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal. He did not manage a single game.

In his career, Beltran hit 149 home runs, drove in 559 runs, earned three Gold Glove awards and two Silver Slugger awards in seven years with the Mets, and was a key piece of the team’s 2006 NLCS run. He played in parts of three seasons with the Yankees near the end of his career.
