Tom Brady made one demand of his teammate when he was challenged. The 45-year-old has been very candid about the Bucs’ poor performance this season, and from the looks of it, that may be the only thing on his mind.

Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette shared a video where he spilled the beans on a challenge he issued. The RB gave Brady the opportunity to race him. The 100-yard dash had $5000 on the line. But, TB12 would have a 50-yard head start. Here’s what Brady said.

The NFL world may begin to realize that Brady is aware of his age. Although it doesn’t seem like it, TB12 knows that he’d get beaten by his younger peers in a heartbeat. And if there’s one thing fans know, it’s that Brady is not exactly known for his speed.

So of course, the QB denied Fournette. But TB12 later tweeted one demand. While Brady may have been joking about this, the Bucs will definitely be pleased if it is fulfilled. The QB tweeted, “Give me 60 yards and you got a deal 😂” The video, which was made in partnership with Autograph, garnered reactions from the NFL community online.

While Brady may have made the statement as a joke, there’s no doubt Tampa Bay will need all the ammunition they can find.
