On February 1st, 2023, Tom Brady made it as clear as day that he would retire. Some critics might say that he could yet again reverse his judgment and return to the game. It looks like that thing could happen, as an NFL pundit is hinting toward it. The football community might witness another TB12 turnaround with a significant team, and the fans are buzzing over it.
Tom Brady went through several developments in 2022. He had the limelight, be it the divorce, his return from retirement, or the Tampa Bay Buccaneers‘ unfruitful season. It is the second time that the NFL GOAT chose to step down for the game. But there are still wild speculations around that.

Tom Brady might be retired. But PFF’s Mike Florio has some other theories in mind. The NFL pundit focused upon a scenario when the San Francisco 49ers put up their interest in the NFL GOAT. The Insider mentioned, “Brady could be the missing piece to the first San Francisco Super Bowl victory in 29 years — since the 29th Super Bowl.”
Yes, Tom Brady is retired. He'll nevertheless become a free agent next month, and the 49ers have real quarterback questions — again. Is this the year they finally try to get him to come home? https://t.co/GJ9RtmJIFD

This user said the Niners would not need Brady, as they have adequate force.

However, if Brady would make his comeback with the 49ers, this user wouldn’t be surprised.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up on the Niners. Purdy will be out most of if not the whole year. Lance is not the answer. They are built to win now.

Florio’s comments are just speculations. Since Tom Brady already sent out his official letter to the NFL and NFLPA about stepping down, the chances are unlikely. However, when the QB1 becomes a free agent by next month, he will have the authority to pick wherever he may choose to go.
With Jimmy Garoppolo becoming a free agent, the franchise remains with the odds of Trey Lance and Brock Purdy. The franchise has good quarterbacks. But Purdy stands out as he pulled up a standout performance.
