Tom Brady Entering Free Agency at This Point of His Career Should Actually Insult the Patriots
By Michael Luciano
After 20 nearly harmonious years, are Tom Brady and the New England Patriots finally starting to show signs of strife?
Brady is an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and he is entertaining the possibility of playing for a different team for the first time in his professional career.
Bill Belichick and Tom Brady have spoken recently, but those talks were not yesterday and the tone of their discussion was “business as usual”, per source. Still many questions left to answer.

This should tick Robert Kraft off a bit.
This organization helped mold Brady into one of the greatest players in NFL history and has helped him prolong his career as long as it has gone on. After all of that, and despite the fact that New England wants to bring him back and is willing to spend money on skill position players to entice him to come back, Brady is considering joining a team like the Titans, Raiders or Chargers?
Tom will be a god in New England for the rest of time, and the organization will always love him, so TB12 trying to manufacture a move elsewhere is simply Brady trying to prove something about himself as a person or player to the Patriots.

Brady could walk away from football now and no one would have a problem with it, as he already has his stats, wealth, championships and legacy secure from his time in New England. There really isn't anything that another team can offer him at this point other than a paycheck.
The fact that Brady is considering to go to a worse organization and roster situation at the age of 42 is something that should upset plenty of folks in the northeast.
