Tampa Bay had been rumored to be making an aggressive push for Brady, who officially becomes an unrestricted free agent Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET.
The Chargers long had been viewed as a potential destination for Brady after parting ways with quarterback Philip Rivers earlier in the offseason.
It appears both clubs are willing to pay Brady more than the Patriots, who reportedly told the six-time Super Bowl champion they couldn't offer him more than the $23 million he made last season.
Per Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer, it sounds like both clubs are the only serious suitors for Brady at the moment.
