A series of low-key updates shared by Brady and highlighted in a post circulating on X quickly went viral.
"So this is what you do on a Sunday," Brady captioned a couch selfie.
In between those moments, Brady also shared a photo of himself holding the book Trillion Dollar Coach, a title focused on leadership and sustained excellence.
He later followed it up with another update from home.
"Major move. From the couch back to bed. This is what Sunday is all about," Brady wrote on a cozy bed selfie.
The simplicity of the posts stood in stark contrast to the intensity that once defined his Sundays.

Why Tom Brady's Sundays still feel tied to football
Brady officially stepped away from the NFL after one of the most accomplished careers in sports history. Yet his language, timing, and tone suggest Sundays remain emotionally loaded.
For elite athletes, routine is everything. Sundays were once the focal point of Brady's week, built around preparation, competition, and leadership.
Now, the absence of that structure appears noticeable. Fans have interpreted the posts less as bragging about relaxation and more as a subtle acknowledgment of what's missing.
The choice to share them publicly, rather than privately, only amplified that reading. Brady remains active in business, broadcasting, and ownership ventures. Still, none replicate the singular adrenaline of game day.
