Buccaneers GM: Extension For Tom Brady 'A Possibility'

Tom Brady turns 44 years old in August, but for Brady and the Super Bowl-winning Tampa Bay Buccaneers, that's hardly viewed as a problem.

Instead, Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht said on the Rich Eisen Show that signing Brady to a longer deal isn't out of the question. Brady's current two-year contract expires at the end of the 2021 season.

Licht said he speaks with Brady "often" and didn't rule out the idea of an extension, saying that "it's a possibility."

Brady has won seven Super Bowls, more than any team. And between the Buccaneers (one) and Patriots (nine), he’s been to 10 Super Bowls in all. He finished this past regular season with 4,633 yards passing, 40 touchdowns and a mere 12 interceptions.

He was particularly impressive in this season’s biggest game — completing 21 of 29 passes for 201 yards with three TDs as the Buccaneers stomped the Kansas City Chiefs in a 31-9 Super Bowl LV rout.
