Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has shared his thoughts on Tom Brady’s post-game press conference following Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Brady, who is in his 22nd season in the NFL, said he would take a moment to decide his future in the league.
On the “Kyle Brandt’s Basement” podcast, Allen voiced his opinion about Brady’s possible retirement. He said the 45-year-old might have just already played his final game. Allen described the situation as similar to last season when Brady almost retired.
“I don’t know. When it happened last year, and he retired, I told people, ‘I’ll believe it when he’s not playing the first game,” Allen said on Tuesday.
Allen also thought that the press conference was quite emotional for him.
“But the way he talked in his press conference last night — it seemed a little too sentimental for my liking in of holding on to the belief that he’s going to continue to play. But we’ll see,” Allen said.
Despite a potential second retirement, some sources have reported that several teams might be interested in g the seven-time Super Bowl champion for next season.
“It’s up to him and the people in his life, around him, and how he’s going to take that decision into his own hands, but I know there’s going to be teams calling him,” Allen added.
At Monday’s press conference, Brady delivered a statement that many interpreted as a farewell speech. Brady said he was thankful to the team’s staff and reporters.
“I just want to say thank you, guys, for everything.”
