It’s been a while since we last saw Tom Brady take the field for an NFL game.
Nonetheless, being the legend he is, most teams in the league would welcome him back in a heartbeat, even without a full offseason or training camp.
The aura around Brady leads people to believe that Brady could simply suit up tomorrow without warming up, learning the playbook, or even knowing his teammates, and he’d still be able to find success and win plenty of football games.
With that in mind, NFL analyst Colin Cowherd made a case for the Minnesota Vikings as a potential destination for the seven-time Super Bowl champion.
Talking on his show, The Herd, he stated that the Vikings have plenty of talent on offense, and they could be tempted to give Brady a call if they get off to a strong start of the season.

He pointed out that they could have Brady, an elite offensive talent like Christian Darrisaw, and a very talented group of players at his disposal, with Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and T.J. Hockenson catching passes, and Aaron Jones out of the backfield.
He also called Kevin O’Connell ‘an elite’ coach, so the Vikings could be a legitimate competitor in the NFC North Division.
On paper, this makes sense.
Then again, as much as Brady left the door open for a potential comeback, perhaps he would be better off somewhere else, and it’s hard to envision him leaving Florida to play in Minnesota’s blistering cold after going from Foxboro to Tampa Bay.
