Tom Brady's NFL future has been up in the air over the past few weeks. It remains to be seen whether the legendary quarterback will return for his 24th season.

While Brady will be focused on getting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers past the Dallas Cowboys in their wild-card matchup, there has been plenty of talk about his next destination.

The 45-year-old's contract with Tampa Bay expires at the end of the season. He still has no shortage of suitors. The Miami Dolphins and Las Vegas Raiders are among the teams that reportedly want to sign Brady for the 2023 season.

The Dolphins are concerned about their quarterback for next season, given Tua Tagovailoa's unfortunate injury situation. Miami still believes that the 24-year-old will return as its starting quarterback in 2023. But it's a huge gamble given the multiple concussions he's already suffered.

Meanwhile, the Raiders have their own problems at quarterback. With Derek Carr most likely to move on, Las Vegas could look to sign Brady in free agency. They also have one of the best receivers in the league in the form of Davante Adams. A partnership of that magnitude would certainly tempt Brady.

Brady may also choose to sign an extension with the Buccaneers. The quarterback seems happy with life in Tampa Bay and even came out of his 40-day retirement to play for the franchise this season.

The last option for Brady could be to retire once and for all. The offseason will draw plenty of attention, but the seven-time Super Bowl winner may simply decide to call it quits after winning everything the game has to offer.

Tom Brady did not have the best of seasons this time but still managed to help the Buccaneers clinch the NFC South division. The 45-year-old has racked up a whopping 4,694 passing yards with 25 touchdowns.

He also has 29 rushing yards and one touchdown on the ground. Brady has played in all of Tampa Bay's regular-season games this season and has been integral to their success.

However, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for the iconic quarterback after his stint in Tampa Bay.
