In the high-stakes world of football, the two iconic quarterbacks- Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers– have long reigned supreme. Now Rodgers is at the crossroads where Brady once was: deciding whether to run for the Vice-Presidential candidacy or not.

Brady’s escapades with former President Donald Trump are resurfacing hinting at the TB12’s political standpoint. From Brady’s deft dodges of political inquiries to the bold foray of Rodgers into the political arena, NFL fans never really have a dull moment.  

Brady unveils his political stance

Brady’s friendship with Trump has long been a subject of intrigue and fascination for NFL fans. Just before the elections, Trump revealed how TB12 was one of his highest-profile endorsements. Initially, as per sources,  Brady expressed his inclination towards Trump as he revealed, “I hope so. That would be great. There’d be a putting green on the White House lawn, I’m sure of that.” On being pestered further, the NFL legend expressed, “Can I just stay out of this debate?” on-air during an interview with Boston radio station, WEEI. 

As a reason, he stated, “Donald is a good friend of mine. I have known him for a long time”. Brady chose to remain tight-lipped emphasizing how he will stay away from being in the midst of personal friendship and extending political opinion. As the NFL GOAT’s friend, Rodgers throws his hat into the political arena, he too has been exposed to much speculation adding a complex touch to his journey with the New York Jets.
