It was reported that the Minnesota Vikings contacted former quarterback Tom Brady regarding a potential NFL comeback. Brady retired from the league last year, however, due to the injury to Kirk Cousins, the team tried to get Brady to come out of retirement again according to radio host Scott Zolak.

Can The Minnesota Vikings Shock The NFL World?
This would have shocked the NFL world if Minnesota was able to sign Brady, but fans still reacted strongly to the news that the team tried to recruit him in the first place. Although their current quarterback Joshua Dobbs has been performing exceptionally well, fans want to see Brady come in and play for their team, also saying that it would almost guarantee them a Super Bowl.
Excuse me Tom is me again on behalf of my @Vikings we’d kindly like a word with u sir .. Just here me out #Skol

@TomBrady Bro please come back and play for the Vikings, we have the best roster in league but it’s gonna go to waste again due to an unfortunate injury at the QB position. You could get #8 this season lol and you got JJ and Hock to throw to w/ a great line. I know you wanna play

It will be interesting to see if Tom Brady would be interested in the Vikings for one season with some of the offensive weapons they have https://t.co/re4VIGL3nO

Tom Brady Rumors
Brady will go down as one of if not the greatest quarterbacks of all time without question, so of course fans are going to try and recruit him since he has already come out of retirement once before. Playing in the league from 2000-2022, Brady went for 89,214 passing yards and 649 touchdowns. He is a seven-time Super Bowl champion and five-time Super Bowl MVP.
The Vikings look like they will continue to roll with Dobbs as this rumor regarding Brady does not look like it has gained any steam recently. However, rumors regarding the future of Cousins on the team could spark up Brady’s name once again if Cousins is dealt to another team in the offseason. Depending on how Dobbs performs for the rest of the season, the team could potentially give Brady another call to ask him to play for them.
