It seems Tom Brady might be plotting a return to his NFL glory days.

Since bidding adieu to their marriage, Gisele Bündchen has been wowing fans and fashionistas alike by getting back to her roots, proving that she still reigns supreme in the world of modeling. Meanwhile, Brady, fresh from saying goodbye to model Irina Shayk after a whirlwind year-long romance, stirred up speculation about his own return to the spotlight — not on the runway, but on the football field. He’s ‘joked’ about returning to the NFL on Instagram, and now, he is agreeing to hypothetical situations that would merit his return to the professional sport.

During a candid chat on the Deep Cuts With VicBlend podcast, Brady openly mused about the idea of donning his helmet and cleats once more. The conversation was lively and full of “what ifs,” serving up a feast for fans dreaming of Brady’s return.

Blend, the host, laid out a scenario, teasing, “Maybe it’s the 49ers, or heading to the playoffs, the offense is great—”

Brady playfully countered, “Patriots, could be Raiders, could be — you never know.”

When Blend asked about the possibility of stepping back into the game, should the call come, Brady shared, per LA Times, “I’m not opposed to it. I don’t know if they’re gonna want me if I become an owner of an NFL team. But I don’t know if—I don’t know. I’m always gonna be in good shape, always be able to throw the ball. To come in for a little bit, like [Michael Jordan] coming back? I don’t know if they’d let me, but I wouldn’t be opposed to it.”

But this story isn’t just about potential comebacks. It’s tinged with the echoes of Brady and Bündchen’s past. The quarterback’s initial flirtation with retirement, followed by a swift U-turn back into the NFL, was a storyline that reportedly sparked tension within their marriage. Friends hinted at turmoil, suggesting that Bündchen felt betrayed during their time together. This narrative took another twist when Brady’s unretirement became a pivotal moment leading to their separation. Bündchen, in reflections shared with ELLE, highlighted her sacrifices for the family and Brady’s dreams, emphasizing her own quest for purpose and fulfillment at 42.

With Brady now entertaining thoughts of re-entering the NFL arena, it’s as though both he and Bündchen are scripting their own tales of resurgence. Hers on the runway, his potentially on the field, each exploring paths that could lead them back to their storied beginnings.
