Brady: ten Super Bowls, seven NFL championship rings
Brady reached his tenth Super Bowl in February 2021, when his Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LV at Raymond James Stadium. It was his first and only Super Bowl appearance with the Buccaneers, whom he joined in 2020 after 20 seasons with the New England Patriots.
