in a conversation with Dan Patrick, he discussed his football career and life at home with his family.

“I think my wife has, you know, held down the house for a long time now,” he said of Gisele Bundchen.

“And I think there’s things that she wants to accomplish. You know, she hasn’t worked as much in the last 10, 12 years just raising our family and kind of committing to being in a life in Boston and then moving to Florida,” he went on to say.

“But that’s an issue, and it’s a very difficult issue to reconcile without just saying, ‘Hey, it’s time to retire.’ We’re coming to the end here too, so I don’t want to miss any of the kids’ stuff,” he continued.

“And I think at the same time, there’s a lot of parents who get two or three weeks off a year that work real jobs and real lives. I get a lot of time off actually…football players, we get a good healthy off season. I try to do my best with the kids. Although I wish I was there more, but I think if I was there too much, you know, they might be sick and tired of me screwing up everything that’s been going on in the house for a long time too,” he went on to say.

“So I’ve heard that argument on the other side as well. So I think it’s a little teeter-totter from time to time and I’m trying, like all of us, to do the best we could do based on the circumstances.”

He also just opened up about what life is like at home during Halloween.
