The Tom Brady free agency saga seared into the headlines once again Thursday as some media sources strongly suggested that Brady will be on the market in the middle of March.

Of course, that means it is time to take another look at Brady’s next team odds, which are provided by SportsBetting

Odds were initially opened on January 5, and they’ve bounced around ever since. The Raiders have been the favorite for three weeks while an earlier favorite, the Chargers, have slipped to third. 

The odds of Brady returning to New England are a tossup with -120 odds each way. 

Additionally, Philip Rivers’ next team odds have also been updated at the sportsbook. The Colts and Bucs remain the favorites despite Las Vegas reportedly having interest in the veteran.
