It looks like one of the famous Tom Brady moments is again in the debate. The striking lines from the QB’s appearance in HBO’s The Shop are running back in the highlights. The people want to know who the Motherf****r was that he trashed and loathed. Recently, many names came up, but Brady shut them down. However, an insider believes it was one of TB12’s teammates from the Patriots.

During CBS Sports’ Maggie and Perloff, Seth Wickersham put his claims on the heavily debated topic. The history revealed that it was not Ryan Fitzpatrick, Ryan Tannehill, or Derek Carr. But the senior ESPN writer suggested an exotic name. Wickersham believes it to be Brady’s ex-teammate and current 49er, Jimmy Garoppolo.

Seth Wickersham mentioned, “I think it’s Garoppolo… [Brady] wanted to be a 49er. He was reaching out to the 49ers saying, ‘Just so you know, if you want me, I won’t even go on a free agency tour. Open and closed, I would like to be a 49er.’”

“The 49ers had just come off that Super Bowl loss. They knew Brady was better than Jimmy G, but they were worried about displacing a popular locker room leader. They worried about some of the film that Brady had. Kyle Shanahan had the entire offensive staff watch all of his snaps in 2019. At the end of the day, they decided to stay put.”

The claims by the ESPN Insider do not come out of nowhere. He wrote in his book ‘It’s Better to Be Feared’ that Tom Brady contacted his buddy and ex-49ers WR mentor Wes Welker to make his availability heard in the organization.

Why does Tom Brady have the interest to be a 49er?

Tom Brady spent most of his career playing for the Patriots and is currently with the Buccaneers. However, his love for the Bay remains inevitable, and there is a deep history. The quarterback grew up in San Mateo, California, and was an enormous 49ers fan. He often attended the franchise’s home games and idolized Joe Montana.

When The Pharaoh touched the doors to free agency for the first time, multiple speculations surrounding his new location came up. Some even said it to be the 49ers. Rumors reportedly circulated that the quarterback’s brief retirement was a ruse to pave the deck for a trade to his dream team. However, Brady touched down in Tampa Bay, and the rest is history.
