By Kevin J. Stone/@kstone06/@newftbj I was hoping it wouldn’t come to this. Free agency doesn’t start for another two weeks (technically,) but if you’re to believe many of the swirling reports, Tom Brady is as good as gone.

In fact, Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald has reported that the Patriots have not spoken to…

Image courtesy of Silver and Black Today Reports surfaced over the weekend that the Las Vegas Raiders were prepared to offer Tom Brady a two year, $60 million dollar contract. On the surface, this seems like a typical Raiders move by owner Mark Davis and head coach Jon Gruden. The Raiders love to sign aging stars. In reality however, offering Brady a contract makes sense for Las Vegas. The Raiders…

Stone/@kstone06/@newftbj As the end of February approaches, the reality of Tom Brady becoming a free agent for the first time in his career becomes more and more likely by the day.
