Whether he is on the field or off, people can’t seem to not talk about Tom Brady. Recent rumors suggest that Tom Brady might have something to do with the Miami Dolphins and while Brady has steered clear of the conversations, there might be some truth to it.
Going into the 2023 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins even lost two picks, courtesy of TB12. But it’s not what many would imagine. Ever since Brady relocated to Miami, Dolphins rumors have been knocking at his door, and even the NFL GOAT acknowledges the franchise to a certain degree.

One of the biggest rumors coming out of the NFL Combine was that Tom Brady could be linked to the Miami Dolphins. The man behind these rumors was Rich Eisen.
Earlier, Eisen confidently said on his show, “Number one rumor I heard at the combine… Tom Brady may not be done after all.” And thus began a never-ending series of questions directed at Tom Brady. Brady was however quick to shut these rumors down as he took to Twitter to share that his playing days were behind him, and he was focused on being a good caregiver to his cat. While Brady might not be joining the Dolphins, he does have a sense of affinity for the team. Being a Miami resident, Brady is trying his best to acclimatize to the city, and rooting for the Dolphins is just a part of it.
During the 2023 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins took to Instagram to share their recent draft picks.

As ironic as it may sound, Brady was lingering around the corner and even liked the post. While Brady acknowledging the post does not confirm his alignment with the Dolphins in any way, it certainly poured oil over the blazing fire. Of course, fans will cling to any indication of the fact that the GOAT might be returning to the gridiron. This isn’t the only time when the ex-QB has fueled rumors of joining the Dolphins, as he only had good things to say about the team at a conference.

Many would imagine Tom Brady to root for the Patriots or Buccs but during his appearance at the eMerge Americas technology conference in Miami Brady divulged on his love for the Dolphins.
“I will say, now that I’m not affiliated with any team anymore, even though I had strong ties with a couple of teams, I do have some friends on the Dolphins that I really like, I wouldn’t say I necessarily root for them all the time, but I root for my friends to do well and several of them play for Miami,” said Brady.
Brady is known for keeping his options open, and his actions concerning a possible return to the NFL are fairly indicative of that. While Brady enjoys his retirement in the solace of his family and pets, the NFL GOAT would certainly be a huge addition to any roster around the league, and the Dolphins facility is just around the corner.
