Everyone grab the popcorn.
NFL legend Tom Brady called it quits earlier this year for the second time in as many years, this time promising that his retirement would be for good. But he gave an interesting answer recently that once again has fans talking about whether or not he'll actually stay away from playing football.
And as you know, he has a hefty deal at Fox on the horizon to the tune of $375 million to serve as their lead NFL analyst. But is there a chance he could walk away from that deal?
According to The New York Post’s Andrew Marchand, there's nearly a 50% chance that Brady could change his mind:
“It was at 51 percent that he’s going to do it to 49 percent, with the reasoning it’s so much money he’ll try it for a year,” Marchand said. “However, I’ve talked to a couple people recently close to Brady and I kind of feel like I’m going more 49 percent chance he does it, 51 percent chance he doesn’t. I don’t think he wants travel that much — obviously he’s going to go private. I think Brady’s a guy who if he’s in, he’s all-in, so he’s not going to be showing up day of games like Joe Buck and Aikman do sometimes, he’s going to be there early if he’s going to do it. So it’s going to be a four-day event, again, cry me a river for that type of money for five and a half months.”
All this will do is further fuel speculation that Brady could once again be toying with yet another NFL comeback.
