New on SI: Tom Brady Team Odds: Patriots Expected to Re-Sign QB in 2020

Tom Brady is set to become a free agent on March 18.

Tom Brady is set to become a free agent for the first time in his career, and the rumor mill is swirling over whether he'll return to the

New England Patriots or find a new home.

On Thursday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Brady is "operating under the belief that he will enter free agency." The 42-year-old may be the NFL's oldest quarterback, but he appears to be a coveted commodity if he enters the free-agent market. 

Brady can sign with another team when the new league year opens March 18, and he can begin negotiations with teams two days prior. Brady and Patriots head coach Bill Belichick have yet to schedule a meeting, although it is expected to happen. Belichick and Brady have won six Super Bowls together over 20 seasons.

Las Vegas predicts Brady will play with the Patriots again in 2020, per FanDuel Sportsbook. However, the recent rumors have dropped New England's odds from -400 to -180. 

Other teams on the list include the Raiders, who are moving to Las Vegas in 2020, and the Chargers. San Diego recently moved on from veteran QB Phillip Rivers after 16 seasons.

Check out the latest odds for Tom Brady's Week 1 team in 2020:

  1. Patriots: -180
  2. Titans: +550
  3. Raiders: +650
  4. Chargers: +750
  5. Giants: +1000
  6. Buccaneers: +1900
  7. Cowboys: +2900
  8. Dolphins: +2900
  9. Colts: +3400

New on SI: NFL Kickers Have Historically Bad Week With Record-Tying 12 Missed PATs

It's been a historically bad week for NFL kickers, with 12 missed PATs through the conclusion of Sunday's evening games. View the original article to see embedded media. Kickers in many ways have a thankless job. Make a kick, and often times nobody really cares. Miss one? Well, people won't stop bringing it up. The 2021 season has already established a new high-water mark in kicking with Ravens kicker Justin Tucker's NFL record-setting 66-yard field goal to beat the Lions in Week 3. Two weeks later, though, we might have established a new low point. Prior to kickoff on Sunday Night Football  between the Bills and Chiefs, kickers had missed a whopping 12 extra points in Week 5. That ties the league's Super Bowl era record set in Week 11 during the 2016 season, the year after the NFL moved PAT's back to the 15-yard line. Rams kicker Matt Gay got the train rolling on Thursday when he missed his first PAT attempt of the game in the third quarter. That set a ...
