Tom Brady has this on-and-off relationship with the football field. He recently unretired from football and then went on to retire again. It’s not like he is completely out of touch with the football world. He can never be! It’s more like he’s played football for so long that not being in the game anymore is a nightmare for him.
Recently, news broke out that Brady will advise Mark Davis to pick a new GM and an HF for the Raiders. He has not lost his touch and is still invested in the NFL. Some interesting facts surfaced on the ground after he let his feelings out on his Sirius XM show. This is the sort of stuff that keeps fans on the edge of their seats.
Tom Brady is mad
Brady dropped out of the NFL for good this year and played for the Bucs for the last time in his career. These days, Brady is just chilling and watching football from his couch. However, he is unhappy with how things are going in the NFL. He is reportedly frustrated that he is not as impactful to the NFL as he used to be back in the day. In his glory days, there wasn’t a game where he touched the ball and a miracle didn’t happen.
However, these days are a different story for him. “I just want to pull my hair and go, what the f*** is going on?” said Brady. “Football’s a tough sport. It’s brutally tough, and again I was in it, and I had a very big impact on every single game, I have zero impact on any games this year.” While it is true that his return is not possible, the silver lining here is that he was inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame this year.
The post got the fans guessing his next move. Many are still reminiscing about the old days and are hoping for his return to the field. From the looks of it, the situation looks far-fetched, and his return to the NFL is a big question. Whether he returns to the field, he is still involved with the NFL, and people might not find it exciting.
Brady still circling the league
The 7x Super Bowl champion is still contributing to the NFL from the shadows. Brady and the Raiders’ owner, Mark Davis, have some plans in the pipeline that will make Brady a minority owner of the Raiders in the near future. However, there is some contention from the other stakeholders of the team. Apparently, Mark Davis has given a hefty discount to Brady for a ticket to the Raiders, and other stakeholders are not happy about it.

Also, the ongoing turmoil of the Raiders has forced Brady’s hands to help Mark Davis get a new General Manager and a Head Coach for the team. It was speculated that the firing of Josh McDaniels and Dave Ziegler might have Brady’s involvement in it. Reportedly, Mark Davis and Tom Brady are good friends, which might be why these rumors loom around him.
For now, the 7x SB quarterback has to settle for watching the games and not being a part of them. Brady might be thinking that there is no way for him to make an impact on the league, but what he’s missing is the fact that he can do even bigger things and not even play the game.
