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.

Seahawks ruled out RB Kenneth Walker III for Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

No mention of Charbonnet here, so we can assume he's in a good place to take a massive workload against a Bears defense that ranks 27th in RB aFPA. Fire up Charbs as an RB2.

The Eagles list QB Jalen Hurts as DNP on their estimated practice report because of a concussion, putting his status for this weekend in doubt.

Steelers WR George Pickens officially Active for Christmas Day

Chiefs Pro-Bowl DT Chris Jones officially is inactive today vs. the Steelers.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. officially is inactive, WR George Pickens officially active.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.
