Tom Brady might retire a Patriot
The way it should be.
Tom Brady won’t rule out signing one-day contract to retire as a Patriot
A lot has been made of the way Tom Brady left the New England Patriots, but the seven-time Super Bowl champion tried to make it clear on Sunday night that he has nothing but love for his former team and coach. Brady even hinted at a possible reunion down the road.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft said before Sunday’s game that he is confident Brady will retire as a Patriot one day.
After his Tampa Bay Buccaneers fought their way to a 19-17 win in Foxboro, Brady was asked about Kraft’s remarks and whether he would be open to signing a one-day contract to retire as a Patriot. The 44-year-old did not rule it out.
“Are you offering me a one-day contract or did he offer me that?” Brady asked a reporter, via Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald. “(Kraft) didn’t offer me that, so … I still got some time left with the Bucs. And like I said, really enjoying that. We got a lot to accomplish this year. It’s a tough challenging year. It’s a marathon of a season. It’s only four games in. There is a lot football to be played.”
As expected, Brady had nothing but good things to say about his two decades in New England. He said there “could be an opportunity to come back here,” though he did not go into specifics.
Brady may play into his late-40s, but there’s little doubt he will always consider himself a Patriot. While there was some tension between him and Bill Belichick toward the end of his tenure with the Pats, the two future Hall of Famers proved on Sunday night that their relationship is in a good place. There’s no reason to think Brady will disappear on New Englanders after he retires.

Without a doubt when the day comes he will be a Patriot.
"I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
He will always be a Patriot.

👍👍🏈💪💪
not gonna happen...............
I don’t know if Brady would actually do that to be honest. I do think his HOF plaque will be in a Patriots uniform regardless.
of course that will happen. was there ever any doubt?
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
He'll retire a Jet.
I’m telling you I wouldn’t put it past him to just not bother. He is weird about stuff I think, almost like it’s beneath him to sign that one day contract thing. Like if he did he might need to actually play that day to do it lol
this is very true.
