According to Rap Sheet’s Ian Rappaport, Brady will play three to five more seasons for the Patriots. This means that Garoppolo will be considered as a traded backup for the offseason.
#Patriots will look to extend QB Tom Brady next offseason, source says. Clear indication they believe his proclamation to play into his 40s.

Retires
Connolly retires from the NFL.
