Who Are All The Free Agents In The NFL?

The NFL free agency period is upon us, and there are plenty of big names available. Here’s a look at who some of the top free agents are and where they might land.

Tom Brady

Tom Brady is the most high-profile free agent in the NFL. The 42-year-old quarterback is coming off a season in which he threw for 4,355 yards and 29 touchdowns. Brady is a six-time Super Bowl champion and is widely considered to be the greatest quarterback of all time.

New England Patriots

Tom Brady is a professional American football quarterback for the New England Patriots of the National Football League (NFL). He is one of only two players to win five Super Bowls (the other being defensive end Charles Haley), and he is the only player to win them all playing for one team. Brady has also been selected to 11 Pro Bowls, has led his team to more division titles than any other quarterback in NFL history, and holds many postseason quarterback records.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Tom Brady is an American football quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by the New England Patriots in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft.

Drew Brees

Drew Brees is an American football quarterback for the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League (NFL). He had a record-setting 72 touchdown passes in his first season with the Saints, which helped him earn the AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award.

New Orleans Saints

Drew Brees is a professional American football quarterback for the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League (NFL). He had a stellar college career with the Purdue Boilermakers, setting numerous NCAA records, and was chosen by the San Diego Chargers with the first pick in the second round of the 2001 NFL Draft. Brees proved himself to be an elite NFL quarterback over the next several years, leading the Chargers to a division title in 2004 and setting multiple passing records. In 2006, he suffered a dislocation of his right shoulder in a game against the Denver Broncos, missing the remainder of that season. The injury raised concerns about his long-term prospects, but Brees worked diligently to rehabilitate his shoulder and continued to play at a high level thereafter. He joined the Saints in free agency in 2006 and helped lead them to their first-ever Super Bowl victory in 2010. In 2013, he was named the NFL’s Most Valuable Player (MVP) after setting an NFL single-season record for passing yards.
