Tom Brady achieved virtually everything in his 23 seasons in the NFL — highlighted by his seven Super Bowls — but Phanincit is what he couldn't achieve that helped make his legacy what it is.

Brady can now take one of those items from his defeat list and add it to his win column: his original 40-yard dash at the 2000 NFL scouting combine. Twenty-four years removed from participating in the NFL combine — and a year removed from officially retiring — Brady attempted to run the 40 again at 46 years old. His original 40-yard clocked in at 5.28 seconds.

The former sixth-round pick out of Michigan accomplished the challenge in a workout video for NoBull, proving that he is faster now at 46 years old than when he was 22.

Brady had two friends clock his 40-yard dash in the video, one clocking him at 5.18 seconds and the other at 5.12.

"24 years later, redemption is spelled T O M," Brady wrote in on social media.
