Buccaneers QB Tom Brady will 'take my time' about retirement decision

Dec 27, 2022

Speaking to sportscaster Jim Gray in his weekly podcast appearance, Tom Brady was asked jokingly if he would retire and then unretire if tight end Rob Gronkowski — who has retired twice from the NFL — unretires again.

"Well, I think next time I decide to retire, that's it for me," a chuckling Brady said on their "Let's Go!" podcast, which was released Monday. "So whenever that day comes, we'll figure it out ... I'm going to take my time whenever that time does come."

Fantasy Impact:

How the rest of the season goes could determine whether or not Brady returns next year. At times, he hasn't looked like the Tom Brady we're used to, but then flashes back to the 2000s in the blink of an eye.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
