What happens from here on out now that Tom Brady has decided to return for another season as quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?
Now that he’s officially back, those odds went from approximately +150 to in the vicinity of a chalky -250. The Saints begin the post-Sean Payton era with a question mark behind centre. In short, pretty much exactly where we left it at the end of the season. As of Monday afternoon, the updated betting odds imply Tampa Bay will battle with the Green Bay Packers for top seed in the NFC just like this past season. If you read the tea leaves correctly prior to Sunday’s announcement and placed a timely future bet on Tampa, then congratulations because you struck massive value. Another year of Brady only increases the chances that tight end Rob Gronkowski and/or running back Leonard Fournette return to Tampa for one more run.
Tom Brady said he's returning to the NFL just 40 days after announcing his retirement.
“We stayed for the whole game and I just kind of held it like a baby and we watched them come back and lose,” the anonymous seller told ESPN. The anonymous consigner caught the ball after Tampa Bay wide receiver Mike Evans tossed it into the stands in the fourth quarter of the Buccaneer’s 30-27 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round. “If there is any item in the field of sports collectibles that needs no embellishment, it is this historic piece: the final touchdown ball of Tom Brady’s career,” Lelands said in its description of the ball.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady (12) throws a pass against the Los Angeles Rams on Jan. 23. Brady's retirement lasted 40 days.
That is a new sort of sports entertainer. You take the field for another year, but the real game is playing with the idea of Tom Brady. Is Tom Brady a football player or is he a fitness guru, an Instagram playboy, a tech entrepreneur or a sports mogul? He can be anything he wants, plus he can take a hit. It shows you are bigger than the biggest entertainment concern in the world. What Brady doesn’t want to be is Joe Namath – in his 50s, skulking the sideline, sewing in his hair, trying to pretend it’s 1969 and reporters are swarming him poolside. Crucially, others do the hard work of pinpointing your place in the star charts. Were you a major constellation or were you the sun? You are huge and then you are a “Hey, whatever happened to …?” And that’s if you’re lucky. Bautista could set up a booth in front of City Hall and people would think he was there trying to sign them up for a credit card. Sports is the entrée. What he wants is everything. He is of sports but no longer just sports. It shows us a man who has gone from having his strings pulled (like all other pros) to doing the pulling himself.
Tom Brady sort de sa retraite et reviendra avec les Buccaneers pour une 23e saison dans la NFL.
La retraite de Brady n’aura finalement duré que 41 jours. En même temps, il faut être réaliste. On ne sait jamais ce que la vie nous réserve. J’ai aimé jouer au football et j’ai hâte de faire autre chose. La saison dernière, il a été le meneur dans la NFL au chapitre des passes de touché (43), des verges accumulées par les airs (5316) et des passes complétées (485). Revoilà l’infatigable pivot de 44 ans qui relancera après mûre réflexion sa quête d’un huitième sacre du Super Bowl la saison prochaine. Je reviens pour ma 23e saison. « J’aime mes coéquipiers et ma famille qui me supporte.
Tom Brady says he's returning to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for his 23rd NFL season, just six weeks after he retired.
Brady has won three NFL MVP awards, been a first-team All-Pro three times and selected to the Pro Bowl 15 times. "These past two months I've realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands," Brady wrote. These past two months I’ve realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands. Brady cited his desire to spend more time with his wife, supermodel Gisele Bundchen, and three children when he decided to walk away from the game on Feb. 1. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. Brady's return should impact their decisions and the team's plans. With this decision now made, we will continue to move forward with our off-season plans to reload this roster for another championship run." "We are thrilled that Tom has decided to come back this season," Bucs general manager Jason Licht said. "As Tom said, his place right now is on the football field. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. But Godwin is staying after getting the franchise tag. Brady's decision comes right before the NFL free agency period begins.
Deux mois après avoir dit qu'il se retirait afin de pouvoir passer plus de temps avec sa famille, Tom Brady a annoncé qu'il disputerait finalement une 23e ...
À moins qu’il subisse une blessure sérieuse ou que son jeu périclite contre toute attente, Brady sera probablement de retour en 2023. On soupçonne que le Gronk voudra continuer de jouer avec son pote, mais les autres ? À suivre. Il reste une saison à écouler au contrat de Brady, et les Bucs tenaient manifestement à ce qu’il l’honore. Arians avait déjà indiqué que l’équipe ne libérerait pas Brady même s’il lui demandait de le faire. On ne saura probablement jamais si Brady voulait ultimement jouer pour une autre équipe en 2022 ou s’il a vraiment cru que le moment était venu d’accrocher ses crampons après l’élimination des Bucs face aux Rams de Los Angeles en janvier. Une chose est sûre, ça ne changera rien à la motivation de Brady en 2022. Certains observateurs ont cru que Brady avait tenté de convaincre les Glazer et les Buccaneers de le libérer afin qu’il puisse poursuivre sa carrière avec une autre équipe. Ce serait un peu dommage qu’il fasse un Brett Favre de lui-même en prenant sa retraite trois fois plutôt qu’une. Ou était-ce quatre ? D’ailleurs, Brady a précisé qu’il aimait ses coéquipiers dans son message de dimanche. Autrement dit, Brady allait jouer à Tampa Bay et nulle part ailleurs en 2022. Une réaction qui a été interprétée comme une autre preuve que Brady effectuerait un retour au jeu. « Il ne faut jamais dire jamais », avait-il d’ailleurs commenté quelques jours après l’annonce de sa retraite en février. Pas tout à fait le discours d’une personne convaincue de son choix. « Au cours des deux derniers mois, j’ai réalisé que ma place est encore sur le terrain et non dans les gradins.
Certes, son choix devra faire des gagnants, notamment les Buccaneers de Tampa Bay, qui figurent de nouveau parmi les favoris pour gagner le prochain Super Bowl.
La personne chanceuse l’ayant capté pourrait en être quitte pour une somme de plus de 1 million $ s’il est vendu à l’encan», avait déclaré le dirigeant. Un total de 23 mises ont été effectuées pour le fameux ballon. Comme le célèbre numéro 12 l’a confirmé dimanche, il a changé d’idée en repoussant sa retraite du football professionnel qu’il avait annoncée plusieurs semaines auparavant.
The Buccaneers have Tom Brady back. Check that box off the Super Bowl list. But now they need to re-up his protection on the offensive line.
The rightful MVP from the 2021 season didn’t last long in free agency, and none of us will complain about that. The Buccaneers may be tight on cap space, but even they know how important keeping Brady’s jersey clean is. The Buccaneers are back in business as legitimate Super Bowl contenders.
Tom Brady is supposed to be unlike any quarterback. For his sake, here's hoping he is.
Yeah, I know what happened to Peyton Manning. In the last start of his NFL career, he won a Super Bowl with Denver… and that’s the way you hope it ends for the game’s best and brightest. I’m not saying that happens with Tom Brady. What I am saying is that there is an abundance of historical reference to believe it could. But Brett Favre proved that in 2009, too, and look what happened the following year. Except Manning was no longer Peyton Manning, throwing nearly twice as many interceptions that season (17) as TDs (9) and benched in Week 10 after producing a 0.0 passer rating vs. That’s not how the curtain is supposed to fall for quarterbacks with glorious careers, but too often it’s the reality. He’s the oldest quarterback (41) to win an AFC championship game. His 107.2 passer rating was the best of his career, exceeding his 99.5 of 1995. His 4,202 yards were the third most of his career, and his 363 completions tied for second. He’s the oldest quarterback (43) to win an NFC championship game. And the winning ended. No quarterback ever led his team to a Super Bowl in its home stadium … until Brady did it in February, 2021. No quarterback at any age this milennium led a team to consecutive Super Bowl victories … until Brady did it in 2003-04.
