Tom Brady prefers to cut rumors short
Interviewed by Robin Lundberg of IF Nowthe former Buccaneers quarterback was annoyed.
“I’m sure I won’t play again. I tried to be as clear as possible and I hate having to repeat it because I’ve said it many times before. I am looking to my future job as a consultant for FOX next year. I’m also focused on the opportunity to own the Raiders and it’s taking its course along with other things in my professional and personal life.”
A situation conducive to rumors on the side of the Raiders
With recent revelations about Jimmy Garoppolo’s suspended contract, rumors of his return have grown. Technically owner-player it is possible. For this, in addition to the first agreement to become an owner, a second would be necessary to have the right to be an owner and player.
Each of the agreements should be validated by 75% of the owners of the league. Still according to TMZ, the latter would not oppose it. Except that obviously, Brady does not want to play in the NFL again.
