When you spend two decades with one organization and establish yourself as an NFL legend by winning six Super Bowl rings during that span, you will likely be examined under the most diligent of microscopes when your future with said franchise appears to be coming to a close.

Even some outlandish rumors will be linked to your name.

That's precisely the case with Tom Brady, as swirling rumors claimed that he and his son (and maybe Gisele?) were checking out schools in Nashville on Thursday. Well, that report turned out to be false, as the school confirmed that the Patriots signal caller was NOT on campus.

Congratulations, Patriots Nation. You are now permitted to continue holding out your undying hope that Brady ends up agreeing to return to Foxborough.

Even this tweet is apparently...not...about football?

Its true purpose is anyone's guess!

Who knows what TB12 is leaning towards, but New England natives don't appear to be relenting anytime soon in their pursuit of the three-time MVP's intentions...even though his offseason is less than a month old.

No matter how valiant their efforts might be, Brady appears set on wearing his free agency proceedings extremely close to the vest.
