He was attending a recent conference in Miami, where reporters asked the seven-time Super Bowl champion about his potential unretirement. He cleverly answered the questions, with fans instantly brewing theories on social media. While this became a hot topic of discussion, NFL analysts Ian Rapoport and Pat McAfee gave a reality check on the overall situation.

Will Tom Brady play for the Miami Dolphins?

The 45-year-old had an illustrious career of 23 seasons in the league, and for two decades, he played for the New England Patriots. He changed the entire landscape of this franchise and ensured the golden era of football.

Discussing the present situation and the ongoing rumors, McAfee analyzed various possibilities. According to Ian Rapport, there are no chances that Brady would return; however, if anything like that happens, he might play for the Dolphins.

“An owner trying to poach the greatest player of all time from a team in the same division, offering up ownership shares,” McAfee explained past conspiracies inside the Dolphins locker room. “I wish I would have been in there for that. but if he ends up on the dolphins, I guess it all worked out. Yeah. Steve Ross went through some sh*t there. Poaching, losing all these allegations.” he added.

Since then, there have been a lot of changes. Owner Stephen Ross had plenty of options to reinstate the glory of Miami. He brought the first-ever F1 race to town and strengthened its offensive unit with Tyreek Hill and Tua Tagovailoa joining the squad.

What did Brady say in the conference?

When the passer announced his retirement, one of the priorities he mentioned was looking after his family and kids. He vowed to dedicate the remaining part of his life to children and their upbringing. Well, fans are not ready to agree with these justifications. He addressed the possibilities while speaking at the eMerge Americas global technology conference.

“I will say, now that I’m not affiliated with any team anymore, and even though I have strong ties with a couple of teams, I do have some friends on the Dolphins that I really like,” Brady responded, per FOX News. There are plenty of options available for the veteran, and it will be interesting to see whether he makes a comeback.
