Tom Brady Elected as 2028 Olympic Legend: "Step It Up" To The Big Show!
Tom Brady is set to play in the inaugural Fanatics Flag Football Classic on March 21, but it doesn't mean he will play in the 2028 Summer Olympics.
Tom Brady may be playing quarterback at the inaugural Fanatics Flag Football Classic, but that doesn't mean the seven-time Super Bowl winner is looking to participate in the 2028 Olympics. Brady was asked during a March 17 appearance on "Good Morning America" whether he would consider competing for Team USA as flag football debuts at the 2028 Summer Games in Los Angeles. "I would never say never, but it's probably unlikely," Brady responded.
2028 OLYMPICS: Team USA's flag football talent search is on. Here's how While Brady didn't entirely rule out competing for an Olympic roster spot, the 48-year-old envisioned a different role for himself as part of the global competition. He also gave a vote of confidence to a couple of other quarterbacks who could draw consideration for the event.
"If I ever wanted to come in as an advisory role or as a coach, something like that, that's probably better suited for me," Brady said. "But I'll let the young Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen get out there and try to win a gold medal for the U. S.
" Brady echoed his sentiments later in the day after Jimmy Fallon asked him on "The Tonight Show" if he would play should Team USA need a quarterback for the 2028 Olympics. "Why would they ever need a quarterback? " Brady retorted, before referencing Allen, Mahomes, Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson as quarterbacks who should draw consideration for the role over him.
