Much like everyone likes to joke about the Lightning/Panthers getting players because “taxes”, there may be something there with this decision.
2 years, 50 million and living in Florida and “tax reasons” probably played a huge factor in Brady’s decision.

Brady has made around $300 million in his career and his wife has made 2x that, so the $ aspect is really so that he can keep the upper end of the salary scale for QBs, so that those other QBs can get paid in the league.
He gets out from the brilliant yet demanding Belichek and can do what he wants in Tampa with his shady personal trainer sidekick. And, it's a challenge and almost a hobby to figure out if he can do this solo.
