Tom Brady's future is more uncertain than it ever has been. With the 42-year-old passer set to hit free agency for the first time of his career, there are some that believe he will stay in New England while others believe he may head elsewhere. Or, he could even retire.
Until Brady gives any inkling of what will happen, the speculation on his future will run rampant (and so far, Brady has been calling all of that speculation "just hype").
That said, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Brady's relationship with Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft could be a significant advantage for the Patriots as they look to retain him. And as a source told Schefter, things between Belichick and Brady are "terrific" right now.
I can tell you this: The working relationship with Tom and Bill (Belichick) right now is terrific.

Certainly, Patriots fans will be happy to hear this, as there have been some reports and speculation of tension between the two of the course of the past few years. But it seems that they are getting along well. And sitting at 7-0 heading into Sunday's action, it's easy to see why.
Brady's future will continue to be a question mark, but perhaps his positive relationship with Belichick and Kraft could convince him to return to the Patriots in 2020.
Either way, one thing is certain. The Patriots are soon set to deal with the most uncertainty they've faced at quarterback at any point in the past decade.
