Tom Brady will not return to the New England Patriots in 2020. Here’s why that opens the door for the NY Jets and we give you the details.

Free-agent quarterback Tom Brady has announced he’s leaving the New England Patriots this offseason. Brady announced he’s leaving? *Runs to check calendar* it isn’t April Fools’? Wait are you serious?

Here’s the complete statement from Brady with the caption “Forever a Patriot”:

“To all my teammates, coaches, executives and staff, Coach Belichick, RKK, and the Kraft family and the entire organization. I want to say thank you for the past 20 years of my life and the daily commitment to winning and creating a winning culture built on great values. I am grateful for all that you have taught me. I have learned from everyone. You all have allowed me to maximize my potential and that is all a player can ever hope for.

Everything we have accomplished brings me great joy and the lessons I have learned will carry on with me forever. I couldn’t be the man I am today without the relationships you have allowed me to build with you. I have benefited from all you have given me. I cherished every opportunity I had to be a part of our team, and I love you all for that.

Our team has always set a great standard in pro sports and I know it will continue to do just that. Although my football journey will take place elsewhere, I appreciate everything that we have achieved and am grateful for our incredible TEAM accomplishments. I have been privileged to have had the opportunity to know each and every one of you, and to have the memories we’ve created together.”

It’s official Brady is taking his talents away from the New England Patriots.

After 20 brutal years for Gang Green fans that started back in 2001 thanks to a knockout blow from former Jets linebacker Mo Lewis to Drew Bledsoe on the sideline that officially started the New England dynasty. It’s finally over.

Brady went from the 199th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft. He went from backup to superstardom.

Tom has all the accolades:

• Six-time Super Bowl champion.
• Four-time Super Bowl MVP.
• Three-time NFL MVP.
• 14-time Pro Bowler.
• 541 touchdown passes (second-most in NFL history).
• 74,571 passing yards (second-most in NFL history).

Although the most vicious stats features what he did to NY Jets fans for the last 20 years. The Patriots swept the season series for Gang Green last year for a fourth consecutive time and for the 20th time in history. As a starting quarterback Brady has beaten the NY Jets 29 times during the regular season.

Since 2003 the Patriots have had a double-digit winning year every season. During that same span, New England has also won 16 out of the last 17 AFC East divisional titles.

Now with Brady out of the fold, the division is now open for the taking.

The Buffalo Bills should be considered the new prohibitive favorite heading into 2020 after winning 10 games last season. On top of that Buffalo also got a lot better by adding one of the game’s youngest (26) and most dynamic wide receivers in the NFL by trading for former Minnesota Vikings star Stefon Diggs.

Regardless of who is the favorite in the division, NY Jets fans should have a huge smile on their face because finally, the reign of terror is finally over. Tom Brady isn’t returning to New England a day we’ve all been waiting for.
