Last off-season, Brady briefly retired before ultimately deciding to come back this past season. He turns 46 in August.
Should Brady decide to return to the NFL and leave Tampa Bay, there are a number of destinations that would make sense, including the Raiders (a reunion with Josh McDaniels), Patriots (where a return was speculated about in November) and Dolphins (who have tried to woo him for years and even got caught tampering).
Several of his former Patriots teammates have weighed in, with Rob Gronkowski saying he can’t see Brady retiring just yet and Julian Edelman saying there’s no way his longtime QB returns to the Bucs.
“Let me tell you, it’s going to be whatever situation intrigues him the most,” Gronkowski said. “Whatever opportunity makes him the most excited to play the game of football, that’s where he will be next year.” During this past season, Brady and model Gisele Bündchen finalised their divorce after 13 years of marriage.
