At this point, it really seems like Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady isn't aging. He just won another Super Bowl at 43-years-old and honestly, didn't look like he missed a beat.
Well, Buccaneers GM Jason Licht firmly believes that Brady has a lot left in the tank. Speaking on the Rich Eisen Show, Licht revealed TB12 never confirmed it would be the last contract he signs when he joined Tampa. And the Bucs GM wasn't shy to tell Brady how he really felt about his career longevity:
“I want to keep all those conversations, most of them, private, but no inkling at all,” Licht said. “I told him if he wants to play until he’s 50, and he still feels like he can play, he can still play until he’s 50.”
Brady has already made history by being the oldest starting QB for an NFL franchise, but another seven years seems…well…insane. The oldest player to ever play in the league was George Blanda, who hung them up at 48-years-old.
Nonetheless, who knows what's possible. Brady was utterly dominant for the Buccaneers in 2020, throwing for 40 touchdowns and 4,633 yards. That was his highest TD total since 2007 when Brady threw for 50.
It's unknown if he'll be around for another seven years, but at this point, there are no signs of Brady retiring anytime soon as he looks to run it back in 2021 and win another Super Bowl with the Buccaneers.
