Sorry, Tom Brady fans. That comeback from retirement might be on pause for the time being. At least if he wants to play for a team other than the Buccaneers.
There have been rumors floating around that Brady could potentially return from retirement and go play for another team. He’s been linked to the 49ers for a long time and the rumors aren’t going away.
Well, they weren’t, anyway. Until now. Bruce Arians just did his best to put them to bed.
When asked if the Buccaneers would allow Brady to return with another team, Arians shut it down. He called the move “bad business.”
Arians was asked if Tom Brady wanted to come back with another team, would he accommodate him. “Nope. Bad business.”

He was also asked what it’d take for a team to trade for Tom Brady. His answer was astronomical. Five first-round picks.
What would make Bruce Arians consider a trade for Tom Brady should he return?

For a 44-year-old quarterback? Yeah, nobody is going to be willing to pay that. It sounds more and more like the only way Brady returns is if he returns to the Bucs.
NFL fans weren’t happy with this.
