Robert Kraft has chosen a new verb.
TMZ Sports spotted the Patriots owner in New York on Tuesday and asked him if New England will re-sign quarterback Tom Brady in free agency.
TMZ Sports: "Are we going to keep Tom in New England, Bob?!?"
Kraft: "We plan to!"
Kraft's answer obviously doesn't guarantee anything in the Patriots' negotiations with Brady, who will become a free agent March 18.
