NFL News Tom Brady Retires (Update: Shouts out to Pats players, coaches on social media)

[Guts]

I can’t help but feel slighted as not a single reference to NE (or NE personnel/coaching/management) was mentioned…

I think there's a plan regarding the Patriots.

There's gotta be a reason he doesn't mention the Patriots. Weird.

 

[bigballas]

maybe Brady's just not "ALL-IN" on tampa

 

[SHOWTIME15]

LMAO he doesn't even thank the Patriots or the Kraft family...

He already did 2 seasons ago. Doesn't bother me. I'm sure something is planned for him in NE anyway.

Although it will dissected to death by the media and fans, I don't think it was a purposeful slight. I seriously doubt he would slight people like Edelman and Branch to get back at Belichick and Kraft if he is still bitter. I think it was just an extremely poor decision just to focus on the Bucs since he was retiring a Buc.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

He already sent a huge thanks and goodbye when he left New England. Now he’s covering everyone that he hadn’t done yet.

Because he holds grudges. It will be a long time before this gets fixed if ever. Sucks. Is what it is. The GOAT will always be a Patriot to me even if he considers himself more of a Tampa Bay Buccaneer.

All the rumors have been correct so far and one that was out there was him retiring a Patriot so this post was exclusively for Tampa Bay. Of course those rumors can be wrong too but I'm sure there's a Patriots plan

The NFL will never be the same

 

[Brick27]

Apparently he was a lifelong Buc? Who knew?

 

[varjao]

Thank you GOAT

 

[libra957]

It's done! He officially did it himself. Easily the best ever.....forever. long live the goat

 

[VectorPrime]

I like to think he was still on the edge of a decision but then saw Mahomes collapse in historic fashion and went “lol yeah I’m done no on will ever touch me.”

All the rumors have been correct so far and one that was out there was him retiring a Patriot so this post was exclusively for Tampa Bay. Of course those rumors can be wrong too but I'm sure there's a Patriots plan

But he didn't retire a Patriot...he retired as a freaking Tampa Bay Buccaneer.

 

[JMC00]

People really think he's signing some ceremonial thing when he doesn't even mention the Pats in his retirement announcement? Like i've assumed Brady won't have any involvement with the Pats while Bill is still in charge.

 

[NJPatsfan26]

Hot take : he isn't retiring as a patriot
