Tom Brady

Right now Tom Brady is a free agent. New England has yet to lock him down with a deal to ensure he spends the rest of his career with the Patriots.

This was a difficult season for Brady. He seemed to struggle to work with his receivers and seemed upset with their performance.

In 2019 we finally saw Brady look old. He just didn’t look the same on the field. Brady finished the season with 4,057 yards and 24 touchdowns. We haven’t seen totals that low since 2007.

Brady is looking for more than a one year deal and wants to be paid relatively well. I don’t think Brady is strapped for cash, but he wants the respect that comes with a larger contract.

For a while, I thought Brady was leaving, but then this Instagram post gave me hope. It seems like Brady has unfinished business in New England.

I think the New England Patriots and Tom Brady will work something out and he will be the quarterback for the team next season.
