It’s not clear where New England Patriots legend Tom Brady is going to play football next season.
But it is becoming clear that it will no longer be in New England.
Brady posted what appears to be two good-bye tweets to the Patriots organization and fans Tuesday morning.

Brady gives no indication where he is going. And didn’t officially say he was going to another team. But based on this tweet from ESPN’s Mike Reiss, it sounds like team owner Robert Kraft is saying goodbye to him as well.
Robert Kraft to ESPN: "Tommy initiated contact last night & came over. We had a positive, respectful discussion. It's not the way I want it to end, but I want him to do what is in his best personal interest. After 20 years with us, he has earned that right. I love him like a son"

As it does with this quote from head coach Bill Belichick.
Bill Belichick statement ends this way: "Sometimes in life, it takes some time to pass before truly appreciating something or someone, but that has not been the case with Tom. He is a special person and the greatest quarterback of all-time.”

Where might Brady go? The Los Angeles Chargers, Miami Dolphins, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are believed to be potential destinations.
If this is indeed the end for Brady in Foxborough, he leaves with nine Super Bowl appearances, six Super Bowl rings, four Super Bowl MVPs and three NFL MVPs.
He also totaled 74,571 yards, 541 touchdowns, and 249 wins (playoff and regular season).
