The young quarterback star gives his thoughts on Brady coming back.

Tom Brady has been the highlight storyline of the NFL during this offseason, of course, because of his retirement and unretirement saga. Brady's retirement only lasted a total of 41 days, just a little over a month. There were some people that may have believed him but for a lot of football fans out there, they weren't buying it. Certainly, while Brady is playing the way he is right now.

"He's playing way too well to give it up right now."

Brady is entering his 22nd year in the league after coming off of a 2021 season where he threw for over 5,300 yards, 42 touchdowns, and only 12 interceptions. The Bucs are looking to have another solid season ahead with a schedule that is daunting to start off the season in 2022.
