Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen playfully tease trade talk as star QB pines for fall

Tom Brady seems like a guy ready for a return to New England – at least for some leaf peeping.

The former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and his wife Gisele Bündchen raised eyebrows Saturday with their tweets back-and-forth days after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

"Missing fall this year," the former New England Patriots quarterback tweeted.

Brady grew up in San Mateo, California, but has spent about half his life in states with cooler temperatures where the seasons change regularly. He played college football at Michigan and then spent 20 years with the Patriots in Foxborough, Massachusetts. While it's starting to get cooler in the Northeast, fall in the southern U.S. is obviously quite different.

Brady’s wife Gisele Bundchen replied to the tweet, jokingly asking “Time for a trade?”

The seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback appeared to be taken aback a bit. He’s not one to be caught off guard often.

"Did I miss something??" he responded

Fans of Brady immediately chimed in.

Brady’s not playing like someone who really misses the cooler weather as he begins to heat up during the 2021 season.

Unfortunately for Brady there isn’t any signature autumn weather in the Sunshine State. Brady will have to settle for a 5-1 record this season as he looks to win another Super Bowl with the Bucs.
