Tom Brady 'not opposed' to NFL return if team calls
In his first season of retirement, Tom Brady savored his time off, while still maintaining a close connection with football.
If you take passing comments incredibly seriously, he might get even closer to the game. Brady was asked during an appearance on the DeepCut with VicBlends podcast if he’d pick up the phone if a quarterback-needy NFL team called.
“I’m not opposed to it,” Brady said, via NESN. “I don’t know if they’re gonna let me if I become an owner in an NFL team, but I don’t know if — I don’t know, I’m always going to be in good shape, I’m always gonna be able to throw the ball, so to come in for a little bit like (Michael Jordan) coming back — I don’t know if they’d let me — but I wouldn’t be opposed to it.”
So, Brady still loves the game, would still like to play, but isn’t going to push it. He won’t close the door, either, because he’s an ultimate competitor. But he has an outrageously lucrative broadcasting deal with FOX that kicks in this year, he’s still holding out hope he can become a part owner of an NFL team, and judging by how many times he’s appeared on your screen over the last year, the endorsement business is doing quite well for him, too.
While you shouldn’t regard this with utmost seriousness, don’t be taken aback if individuals continuously mention his name in the forthcoming months as a potential surprise in the quarterback market. This is especially likely when an eminent quarterback unavoidably sustains an injury.
