Earlier in the week, Tom Brady of the New England Patriots posted a cryptic photo on social media and everyone was up in arms on what it meant. According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, Brady's cryptic photo is a tease for a Super Bowl ad that will be shown on Sunday.

With Brady's impending free agency on the horizon, many believed that the photo was a hint on where he might play next season. On the contrary, the Patriots veteran signal-caller was just giving a preview of a commercial that will air during the Super Bowl.

Of course, Brady's decision is the most anticipated offseason storyline. Given that, whenever Brady does anything that could pertain to his looming decision, it's going to interest fans.

For the first time in his career, Brady seems to be entertaining the idea of leaving New England. The 42-year-old quarterback has sold his home in Boston and is planning to meet with teams when free agency begins.

Despite Brady testing the open market, Robert Kraft wants him back with the Patriots in 2020. However, it remains to be seen what Brady's asking price will be in the offseason.

As Brady grew his brand in the NFL, he began to receive more endorsements in his career. Therefore, it shouldn't come as a surprise that he's advertising one of his endorsements during the Super Bowl.

Regardless of what Brady posts on social media, everyone is going to create hypotheticals on what it could mean. But the veteran quarterback's latest post doesn't seem to be anything besides a harmless commercial.
