In a recent article that broke down where Brady may end up next season if he decides to continue playing written by Jeff Howe states that, “The Patriots are slated to have more than $50 million in cap space in 2023, so they can again address their flaws, this time on the heels of a couple impressive draft classes.”
He continued to say, “Brady and [head coach] Bill Belichick still have an abundance of respect for one another. They’ve made points to say it publicly on multiple occasions since the QB departed for Tampa. They also spent 23 minutes together in the visiting locker room at Gillette Stadium following Brady’s return in 2021 — an appointment they set up prior to the game.” With Brady set to be a free agent this off season it is plausible that a reunion could potentially happen.
The Patriots’ may hesitate depending on what Brady plans on doing. If it comes down to being a year to year decision they may be less likely to want to reunite with Brady. Although Jones has played well, if they grabbed Brady he would be able to learn a lot from him while still under a cheap rookie deal.
This season for Brady has not been what he is used to as Bruce Arians’ departure seems to have left a hole. His offensive line problems continue to make matters worse. Despite all the problems he has had this season the Bucs are still in first place in the NFC South at 5-6 with the Atlanta Falcons behind them at 5-7.
