The source added that Brady sees an ideal opportunity for his return given his regimented lifestyle and the convenience of the Los Angeles location, fantasizing about celebrating perhaps one of the greatest birthdays of his life with Olympic gold.
Brady retired “For good” more than two years ago after an initial unretirement led him back to the gridiron for the 2022 season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Brady, now 47, could be aiming for Olympic gold at the age of 50 in the 2028 Olympics. Since hanging up his cleats, the New England Patriots legend has taken a minority stake in the Las Vegas Raiders and landed a $375 million broadcasting gig with FOX Sports.
Yet, it appears Brady’s competitive spirit is still aflame with aspirations to clinch an Olympic gold medal. Minnesota Vikings star Justin Jefferson is equally captivated by the prospect, expressing, “To be honest, I’m at a loss for words,” and dreaming of Olympic glory and a gold medal.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell also expressed excitement about the development, seizing the opportunity to highlight football’s international appeal: “It’s an incredible honor for any athlete to represent their country in the Olympics, which is the pinnacle of global sport,” he remarked.
“I know first-hand that the inclusion of flag football in the Olympics has sparked a tremendous amount of excitement among NFL players interested in the chance to compete for their country on the world stage. We are thrilled that they will now have that chance.”
