Retired quarterback Tom Brady stated on Thursday that he wouldn't rule out returning to the NFL late in a season if a team calls in an "emergency situation". Brady, who retired from the league at the conclusion of the 2022 season, has had his name pop up in several rumors since hanging up the cleats. It appears that he still has the itch to play but it remains to be seen whether he would actually wind up returning to the league or if a team would want his services.

Retired NFL QB Tom Brady recently told Vic Blends of the DeepCut podcast that he would consider returning to the NFL if a team in contention lost its starting quarterback late in a season. While acknowledging the possibility that his return might be a violation of NFL rules - as a potential future minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders - Brady suggested he could be tempted to play if the league allows him to do so. 'I'm not opposed to it. I don't know if (the NFL is) going to let me, if I become an owner of an NFL team, I don't know. I'm always going to be in good shape, always going to be able to throw the ball. So, to come in for a little bit, like (Michael Jordan) coming back (to the NBA after becoming a part owner of a team), I don't know if they'd let me, but I wouldn't be opposed to it,' Brady said.
