While reports of Tom Brady’s imminent retirement broke early on Saturday afternoon, there was no announcement from Brady himself, sparking speculation regarding whether or not a decision on his playing future had actually been made.
While reports continue to seesaw back and forth regarding Brady's playing future, there was one person who commented who would absolutely be plugged into the quarterback's decision making: his father, Tom Brady Sr.
NFL Network’s Mike Giardi reportedly exchanged texts with Brady Sr. on Saturday afternoon, and here’s what he said.
Local Tampa Bay media reporters added fuel to the fire, indicating that Brady had not yet informed the Buccaneers of his decision to hang up the cleats.
