Report: Tom Brady 'embarrassed' by salary, plans to move out of New England [View all]

Speculation continues to run rampant about Tom Brady and what comes next in his Hall of Fame career, and his purported unhappiness with his situation suggests his time with the New England Patriots could be nearing its end.

Gary Tanguay of NBC Sports Boston relayed Thursday night that Brady is “embarrassed” by how his salary with the Patriots pales in comparison to what many of his quarterback colleagues earn.

There are 13 NFL quarterbacks who earn more on an annual basis than Brady, according to the website Over the Cap. This slight is believed to have been aggravating Brady since last summer.

It does merit noting that Brady has agreed to team-friendly deals during his Patriots career so the organization would be better positioned to surround him with high-caliber players. With the Patriots offense struggling mightily in 2019 due to a dearth of talent, perhaps Brady’s patience with his middling quarterback salary has worn thin.
