It probably comes as no surprise to know that the one who holds it is professional football’s GOAT- recently-retired Tom Brady.
Incomparable Brady
Brady holds the record for most all-time passing yards in the Super Bowl, with a total of 3,039 over ten games, nine of which he played with the New England Patriots, and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The 44-year-old also holds the record for most passing yards in a single game (505), which he set in Super Bowl LII against the Philadelphia Eagles in 2018. He also holds the number two slot at 466 yards, which he achieved the year before in Super Bowl LI against the Atlanta Falcons in 2017.
The seven-time Super Bowl champion also holds the ninth position, with 354 passing yards against the Carolina Panthers in 2004.
