In the latest round of verbal sparring among NFL veterans, Cam Newton has once again stepped into the ring, delivering a sharp jab at none other than the legendary Tom Brady. The subject of contention? Brady’s recent hints at a potential return to the NFL, which had sent shockwaves through the football community.
During a recent appearance on the YouTube show “4th & 1 With Cam Newton,” the former Patriots quarterback did not mince words when addressing Brady’s musings about a possible comeback. As the clip of Brady discussing his fitness and openness to a return played, Newton wasted no time in dismissing the notion as “clickbait.” With a pointed gesture to the top right corner of the video, Newton emphasized, “That’s off TikTok,” suggesting that Brady’s remarks were more about garnering attention than genuine intent.
This isn’t the first time Newton has taken aim at Brady’s comments. Back in November of the previous year, he criticized Brady for his remarks about the declining quality of quarterbacks due to rule changes, labeling them as “hating sh*t.” Now, with Brady once again teasing a return, Newton has seized the opportunity to voice his skepticism.
But Newton wasn’t alone in his assessment. Joining him in dousing the flames of speculation was none other than Julian Edelman, a longtime teammate and confidant of Brady’s. Edelman, who shared the field with Brady during their tenure with the New England Patriots, was quick to pour cold water on the idea of a comeback.
In a recent interview, Edelman offered a blunt rebuttal to the notion of Brady returning to the gridiron. Referencing Brady’s current whereabouts, Edelman quipped, “The guy is in St. Tropez right now,” suggesting that the quarterback was more focused on enjoying his retirement than staging a comeback. Despite Brady’s confidence in his ability to perform if called upon late in the season, Edelman remained unconvinced, asserting that such a scenario was highly unlikely.
For fans eagerly anticipating Brady’s return, Newton’s skepticism and Edelman’s candid assessment come as a sobering reality check. While Brady’s illustrious career has been marked by countless achievements and accolades, including multiple Super Bowl MVP titles, his rumored comeback appears to be nothing more than wishful thinking—at least for now.
As the dust settles on this latest chapter of NFL speculation, one thing remains clear: when it comes to the possibility of a Tom Brady comeback, skepticism reigns supreme.
