“Normally I’d feel like it’s Rodgers that would be that guy,” said Simms toNBC’s Pro Football Talk Live about who would leave his team mid season between Aaron Rodgers or TB12. “But because of this year and some of the off-the-field stuff that’s hitting home and personal stuff with Brady, this is the one year I feel maybe it might be Brady. It seems like, and I don’t know this, that his wife is threatening divorce or going down that road by all due accounts of what you read.”

According to reports, Gisele and Tom had a huge fight over Brady’s decision to un-retire, which also led to them hiring divorce lawyers. Would the Buccaneers quarterback leave the team mid season to save his marriage?
