The NFL is making its pitch for Tom Brady to return to football. On Sunday, Brady posted a screenshot of his Super Bowl LVI calendar reminder to Twitter, and it garnered a bunch of attention.
Even the NFL had to chime in on it using their Twitter account:
“There’s always next year…” the NFL’s official handle tweeted with a peering eyes emoji.
Tom Brady appeared in five of the last seven Super Bowls before announcing his retirement following the 2021 NFL season.
Does he wish he wouldn’t have set the reminder, getting his hopes up about winning a record eighth championship? We will all be wondering this until the actual 2022 season begins. Brady himself, meanwhile, left all options on the table in an appearance on his “Let’s Go!” podcast this offseason.
“You know, I’m just gonna take things as they come,” Brady said. “I think that’s the best way to put it, and … you never say never. At the same time, I know that … I feel very good about my decision. I don’t know how I’ll feel six months from now … It most likely won’t (change). But I try to make the best possible decision I can in the moment, which I did this last week. And, again, I think it’s not looking to reverse course; I’m definitely not looking to do that. But (at) the same time, I think you have to be realistic that you never know what challenges there are gonna be in life.”
