It probably makes sense when a six-time Super Bowl champion, and a quarterback to boot, enters free agency that his every move overshadows the rest of the available players.
It does get nonsensical, of course, when Tom Brady saying he’s headed on a family vacation draws headlines and massive social media reaction. Hey, folks, virtually every NFL player goes on holiday in the offseason. You can bet a few of the other free agents in this crop are doing so right now.
Naturally, Brady’s situation is the most intriguing of them all. Perhaps even more so than Peyton Manning’s when he became free from the Colts in 2013.
