Tom Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl champion and NFL icon, has fans buzzing with talk of a comeback. At 48, he just said that his body can still perform at an elite level and that he could be game-ready in just a month.

Amid a disappointing 2025 season for Pete Carroll in his first year as head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, his future with the organization could be influenced by Tom Brady's decision-making power.

The New England Patriots took a dip in Tom Brady’s power rankings this week, after they were ranked as the top team coming out of the bye week. Now, the Patriots sit at the sixth overall spot in the newest version of the rankings.

"It all has the fate of 74-year-old coach Pete Carroll very much in doubt," Rapoport writes. "No stranger to making changes, mercurial owner Mark Davis will weigh the feedback he gets from all sides of his building as he considers the possibility of another. Meanwhile, Carroll is intent on convincing the owner he should return."

Tom Brady has been out of the NFL for several years now, but the former star quarterback is still making waves in the league. The current Fox Sports broadcaster is a seven-time NFL champion from his days with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Las Vegas Raiders minority owner and Fox Sports announcer Tom Brady told Shaquille O'Neal and Adam Lefkoe on Wednesday's The Big Podcast with Shaq that he believes he could still play in the NFL at the age of 48 in the wake of Philip Rivers making a stunning return to the league at 44.
