Tom Brady Thinks He Could Pull a Philip Rivers: Retired QB Is Convinced He Can Still Play in NFL at Age 48
Tom Brady says NFL rules bar his comeback despite confidence in his ability to play like Philip Rivers, who returns at 44 for Colts due to QB injuries.
- Sunday, the Indianapolis Colts signed Philip Rivers and could start him in Seattle after nearly five years out.
- Tom Brady told Colin Cowherd on Thursday he believed he could make a comeback, answering `Yes, I certainly could` and adding, `This game is about, for the quarterback, from the neck up.`
- After the 2023 closure of the owner-player loophole, Brady's Las Vegas Raiders minority stake approved October 2024 made him ineligible to play under NFL rules.
- Steichen will reunite with Philip Rivers in Indy, leveraging eight seasons together at the Chargers as Rivers could be the third QB over 40 to start this year amid Geno Smith's absence.
- Unlike Brady's 40-day 2022 unretirement, Philip Rivers returned from a five-season coaching stint at St. Michael Catholic High School, Alabama, after the 2025 high school season, and they met nine times in their careers.
