Former New England Patriot Scott Zolak said on his radio show Wednesday that the Minnesota Vikings “reached out” to Tom Brady about the possibility of returning to the field as the franchise’s quarterback.

However, Zolak suggested Brady turn down the Vikings for a second return to the NFL.

It’s unclear when the alleged denial occurred, but what makes the most sense is that it occurred after Minnesota’s season starter Kirk Cousins ​​suffered a season-ending Achilles injury on Oct. 29 after.

Instead, the Vikings acquired Joshua Dobbs from the Arizona Cardinals in an attempt to advance to the playoffs without Cousins.

The show was discussing the possibility of the seven-time Super Bowl champion saving the Bengals with Joe Burrow out for the remainder of the season due to injury, but Zolak also dismissed the possibility, insisting Brady ” Already done”.

No one from the Minnesota organization has commented on the alleged investigation.

Zolak also claimed the Miami Dolphins reached out to Brady in March to return to football.

Brady ended his first retirement 40 days after the 2021 season and returned to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year.

Since hanging up his shoulder pads again earlier this year, Brady has repeatedly insisted that his career is over.

Earlier this week, Brady made headlines for saying “there’s a lot of mediocrity in the NFL today.”

Brady, who turns 46 in August, is expected to join Fox Sports’ NFL broadcast team for the 2024 season.
