However, fans are also noticing something else about his announcement. At no point, did he mention the Patriots.
Sure seems odd considering he won his first six Super Bowls with the Pats.

As of this moment, there is a ton of chatter about Brady’s stunning omission. Some think that he didn’t mention the Patriots because there’s a much larger announcement coming with his former team.
I have no idea if he plans on doing something with the Pats or not, but fans seem to be holding out with hope that’s the case.
A privilege to watch and a dream come true.

On the other side of the coin, there’s a chance that Brady’s feelings towards his old franchise might not be what a lot of people think.
Perhaps, he’s still not happy about having to leave in order to continue his NFL career in a fashion he wanted to.
I’m not saying there’s some resentment there, but it’s a question that has to be asked considering he didn’t mention the team he played two decades with once.

We’ll have to wait and see how this story ends, but as of right now, speculation is running rampant about why Brady didn’t mention the team he won six rings with.
