The report cited multiple sources close to the 45-year-old Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback.
One of the options presumably includes joining his favorite team growing up -- the same team Brady faces Sunday as the Bucs (6-6) visit the San Francisco 49ers (8-4) in a battle of division leaders.
According to the report, Brady was likely leaning toward (another) retirement earlier this season when Tampa Bay dropped five of six games.
But with the team winning three of its past four and in position for the seven-time Super Bowl champion to perhaps add to his unparalleled jewelry collection, Brady's passion is said to have been reignited.
