NFL team still planning to offer Tom Brady a contract

Quote:

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft said he'd do 'everything we can' to try and convince Brady to sign a one-day contract with the Patriots, so that the quarterback can retire as a member of the franchise he won six Super Bowl titles with.

This comes one day after Brady - the greatest quarterback in the history of football - announced for a second time that he was retiring from the sport.

'I'd do it tomorrow,' Kraft said in an interview with CNN. 'Not only do I want it, our fans are clamoring for it and to us, he always has been and always will be a Patriot

I’d think that’s when we will know it’s official

You can't tamper if a player is retired, right?

That one day

will be the day they play the Jets and he will beat them handily.

I think ceremonial contracts like this are exceptions.

So I think this is Krafts way of calling TB's bluff

Of course TB will retire a Pat. That would be insane for his brand. If TB is really retiring, his team would've reached out to the Pats for a one-day signing.

I think this is his surefire way he doesn't sign with the Jets. If he were to verbally commit to signing the on-dayer with the Pats, there's no way he un-retires to go to the Jets. He would never be welcomed back in New England.

What?? so you think Kraft is concerned about Brady going to the Jets?

I’ll admit, my theory is out there

Eli2020 : 2/2/2023 5:25 pm : link

and it’s only true if Kraft knows he’s not retiring.

I think he knows that Jets team is better than the pats

Eli2020 : 2/2/2023 5:25 pm : link

With Brady on it.
