The 7x super bowl champion Tom Brady is set to become a free agent this year. Moreover, this gives the 3x NFL MVP player time to take his next NFL career decision. While the media hints at his retirement, Brady has never confirmed the same. Furthermore, his decision to play the 24th NFL season still hangs loose. However, the NFL quarterback has two choices in front of him, either accept the FoxSports $375 million contract or move away from Tampa Bay Buccaneers permanently.

With Brady considering his choices, there has been a new opening at Las Vegas Raiders. With quarterback, Derek Carr’s exit, the team is looking for a potential to fill in the vacancy. In recent news, a veteran AFC offensive coach has stirred the internet with his recent statement. Raiderswire shared the statement regarding Brady, ”I just think with the weapons they have and the familiarity with Josh McDaniels’ offense and the people there, it would be a seamless transition for [Tom Brady].” Joining the Raiders might not actually be a bad choice for Brady.

Besides this, Brady can also benefit in return with the team. FoxSports shares Colin’s statement, ”They have holes, but they check the right boxes. Left tackle Kolton Miller, he’s a good starter. They have a star receiver (Davante Adams) and a star edge rusher (Maxx Crosby). Brady would be the star quarterback.” In addition to this, if Brady becomes Raiders quarterback, he would face a direct rivalry with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes.
