The body isn't even cold, and the Tom Brady-49ers rumors have started

Another Niners offseason, another unsettled winter at quarterback. It hasn't even been 24 hours since the Eagles beat the brakes off the 49ers in Sunday's NFC title game, but that's enough time to get the rumor mill going.

The Athletic already has a story — citing anonymous executives and an agent — on the possibilities of the team’s quarterbacking journey. The headline item is a partnership with Tom Brady, who will become a 46-year-old divorcé ahead of next season. The first anonymous executive says “the chatter” is that Brock Purdy will be Brady’s backup, and Trey Lance will end up somewhere like Tennessee.
