NFL Rumors: Chargers Able To Meet This Request In Tom Brady Sweepstakes
Super Bowl Sunday couldn’t reach noon without a slew of breaking news regarding Tom Brady.
NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport provided new context on Brady’s potential free agency sweepstakes. Most notably, Rapoport reported the New England Patriots would be willing to pay at least $30 million to retain their franchise quarterback, but that they also have a contingency plan.
The Chargers reportedly are among those expected to pursue Brady if he hits the open market. In addition to offering money and talent, the Chargers also could meet a request unique to Brady’s situation.
From Rapoport’s column:
“Another potential factor for Brady is his TB12 workout facility. Brady wants to continue the routine that has kept him upright and agile throughout the years, and a new team being willing to incorporate TB12 into their footprint would help. The Chargers — who will share a stadium with the Rams — would have that capability.”
