Currently, 45-year-old Tom Brady is enduring a pretty bad season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. According to the latest rumors, Brady would be open to playing for the San Francisco 49ers if he gets the opportunity.

The rumor has been circulating for the past few days, as it garnered plenty of reaction from NFL fans. On the other hand, it’s highly unlikely for the 49ers to trade for Brady at this stage of the season after going hard for Christian McCaffrey a few weeks earlier.
NFL fans react to the rumor of Tom Brady playing for the 49ers
Earlier, NBC Sports reported this claim about Brady possibly playing for the Niners. After the news got out, all the NFL fans blasted the QB, as one of them wrote:
Dude gonna play till he is 50 and take us down wit him. At some point your play is going to deteriorate. His is starting 46. May be we will get the sloppy last of Brady until he is 50. 😂

One other fan slammed Brady for jumping the ship after one terrible season.
Shocker 😭😭😭 One season without a non superteam and he’s ready to jump ship

Another fan found it extremely ‘shady’ that Brady is looking for the best roster to win a Super Bowl.
So he's going from team to team looking for the best roster. Man that's crazy. That is shady…….

One fan did not feel surprised by Brady’s choice as the Niners have a comparatively better team now after the Christian McCaffrey trade.
Of course he would 😂 they have the better team now

Whereas, a Niners fan thinks it’s too late for Brady now to explore.
Too late. Should’ve explored trade options at the deadline. Now? Fuck now. Lance is our QB1 in 2023

One Twitter user called him ‘washed’.
He’s washed now

Another Twitter user thinks Brady is done with the Bucs; however, he is not retiring anytime soon.
For sure. 2 things I know is that he isn’t retiring and he’s done with Tampa. I think the was done with Tampa last year when he was spotted hanging out with the Buccaneers owner, I think he was trying to get out of there

Meanwhile, one fan feels tired of these rumors.
Wasn't he already turned down? So many rumors out there, I can't keep up.

On the other hand, a few fans supported this rumor, as one fan wants this trade to take place.

While most fans are against this trade, many fans like this idea, as people want Brady to go on a high after a disappointing last year. This year, Brady and the Bucs are on the verge of missing the playoffs with only 3 wins in 8 games. With only 8 games left in this season, it will be really tough for the Bucs to make comeback.

On the other hand, the Niners are a genuine contender for the Super Bowl now after they signed McCaffrey. Notably, the running back has been playing in pretty much every position since joining the Niners. Although it’s just a rumor, this trade could shock the entire NFL and change the landscape of the Super Bowl picture. The GOAT was a San Francisco 49ers fan and idolized Joe Montana when he way young. Can Tom Brady finally play for his childhood favorite club?
