Tom Brady may be reconsidering his retirement. He said in a recent interview that he is not opposed to returning to the NFL.
ESPN is reference that the gridiron legend's cleats aren't hung up for good. Earlier this week he was a guest on Deep Cut Podcast where he gave his opinion on a variety of subjects. When asked by host Vic Blends if he would accept any offers to play quarterback for a team during the 2024 season, he made it clear he's ready to walk away if allowed. “I'm not against it,” Tom Brady revealed. “I don't know if they'll let me if I become an NFL team owner. I will always be in good shape. I will always be able to throw the ball. Well, to step in for a while, like MJ [Michael Jordan] coming back, I don't know if they would let me. But I wouldn't be against it.”
In 2023, Tom Brady submitted a request to the Las Vegas Raiders to join the team's ownership group. Although the seven-time champion is highly regarded, his offer is not guaranteed, according to league commissioner Roger Goodell. “I wouldn't say it's a delay,” Goodell explained. “We are going through a very thorough process. We just go through our process. We got in touch with their side. I think he's making progress.”
Minority ownership stakes aside Tom Brady should offer his analysis and commentary on his next season Fox Sports. “My career and all that is in the past in my mind. I was a gladiator out there, and now my time has moved on. Now it's, “Okay, how do I deliver for my next group of teammates?” he added.
