Has Tom Brady played his last snap in the NFL? That’s the scuttlebutt that has circulated the league over the weekend, beginning with CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora reporting on Friday that those close to the seven-time Super Bowl champion are anticipating a retirement announcement in the near future. From there, reports noted that Brady was retiring, however, that news was met with some pullback by those in the Brady camp.
