Odds of Tom Brady returning to New England next season are 'not looking good' as the Titans, Raiders, and Giants line up to woo Patriots quarterback

Barring an unexpected change, Tom Brady’s days with the New England Patriots appear to be over. The Hall of Fame quarterback and the only team he has ever played for throughout his legendary NFL career have not been in contact about a new contract. In fact, one person with ‘knowledge of the situation’ told the Boston Herald that the odds of Brady suiting up for the Pats in his 21st season are ‘not looking good.’

Brady to the NY Football Giants??? He would get killed behind that offensive line. Also, the Giants drafted Daniel Jones last year. Jones would lose his starting job and not start for another 2 years meaning he would start until the 4th year of his rookie contract?

New England doesn’t want him at the price he will demand, are the raiders now in LA or vegas? They might have the bucks.

Brady is NOT going to go to the Giants and get his 42-year old arse kicked behind THAT offensive line.

He’s not said he wants more than the 30 plus million NE is offering and no one out there is getting more than that.

I don’t think money is the factor.

I heard the Colts are interested. After Luck, that kinda makes sense to me.

I thought Brady took a low salary (relatively) because his wife makes so much and Brady wanted more dough for the team budget to have better chance as SB?

Quarterbacks who leave teams they have won multiple superbowls with are plain stupid.

Just retire as a New England hero for the rest of your life.

Go to a rival and you will be hated everywhere....ask Brett Farve.

That’s ironic too, because of the Brady hate here in Indy over Inflation-gate.

My son came to me yesterday and asked me, dad, do you know what day it is, I said Thursday, he said, yes, but, it’s also Brady is staying day. Do you know what day it is tomorrow? It’s Brady’s not staying day.

Right. If the Giants wanted a QB who is old enough to collect Social Security, then they would have kept Eli Manning.

“because of the Brady hate here in Indy over Inflation-gate.”

I don’t know. The whole “He may be a crook, but he’s our crook” is pretty universal. I think a few wins might win them over.

No doubt.
Indy is a sucker town for sports.
They pour money into the pockets of the Irsays and Simons beyond any reasonable numbers.

Why do they still say New York Football Giants? There hasn’t been a New York Baseball Giants in 45 years.

62 years. The Giants moved to SF in 1958.

Brady is 42 and past his prime. I don't think he needs to worry about money. He should consider retiring rather than spending a few year trying to relive old glory or worse - finding himself seriously hurt.

We all get old. Professional athletes who are champions should consider being an the exception to going 'over the hill'.

Professional boxer Rocky Marciano competed from 1947 to 1955, and held the world heavyweight title from 1952 to 1956. He is the only heavyweight champion to have finished his career undefeated! He knew when it was time to hang up the gloves.
