Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is one of the greatest players to ever grace the NFL stage. The 7-time Super Bowl champion has been a constant in the league over the years. He is one of the most popular figures of the sport, and an icon that any new football league would love to have an association.

The XFL is one of the newly revamped pro football leagues and has recently signed a partnership with the NFL. While the league will not be a ‘feeder or developmental league’, bringing in Brady will increase their star power tenfold. One of the most successful icons in American Sports, Brady, will be on XFL co-owner Dwayne Johnson’s shortlist.

While it will be a pipedream for the XFL collectively, Brady playing in the league shortly makes sense business-wise. Apart from being a legendary football player, Brady has a lot of initiatives that he would like to promote, and the new league could be the perfect arena.

Is the Tom Brady collaboration with the XFL possible?

Brady will look for a significant financial incentive beyond his salary as he looks to build on his investment portfolio. The Buccaneers QB’s portfolio includes NFT platform Autograph, TB12 Sports, and clothing and apparel label BRADY Brand. He will be joining Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and bringing together 2 of the biggest superstars in the sports and entertainment industry.

But with their recent partnership agreement, there is a greater chance of their continuation in existence past the 2023 season. The XFL will be the lab for the NFL to test new rules and regulations before testing on the league.
