Ahh yes, Tom Brady is back in the news.

This time, it comes after comments he made regarding whether or not he would once again come out of retirement to play QB in the league, sparking rumors — and of course, oddsmakers felt the need to drop a fresh list of odds for Brady's next team if he does indeed make the leap back into the NFL.

Per Covers.com, the teams with the top odds of landing the GOAT are:

Las Vegas Raiders +125
New England Patriots +300
Tampa Bay Buccaneers +500
San Francisco 49ers +900
Miami Dolphins +1200
New York Jets +2000
Any Other Team +500

The odds for Brady to even make his return are 10-1, which is fair given the amount of injuries we have seen to QBs in recent seasons and the only real likelihood of a Brady return being to a true contender late in the season due to an injury.

However, the teams listed do make sense from a number of perspectives.

For the Raiders, they have a definite need at the position and Brady is also set to become a minority owner of the franchise. Similarly, the Patriots are also in dire need of a signal caller under center and of course there is the familiarity with Robert Kraft - the two won six Super Bowls together.

Then there are the other teams like the Bucs, Niners, Dolphins and Jets where an injury would need to occur to their starter for Brady to even become an idea, but he does have ties to each organization.

Given that those with ownership stakes are unable to play per NFL rules and Brady is looking to purchase a share of the Raiders, it's highly unlikely that Brady will come back to the league, but it will never be out of the question if everything comes together perfectly for him to chase his staggering eighth Super Bowl ring.
