Bruce Arians-led Tampa Bay Buccaneers are on their way to the NFL Playoffs this season. That was the minimum expectation for them since the arrival of the legendary Tom Brady in Florida. The Glazer family-owned Buccaneers franchise made a number of big-name additions over the last 8-9 months.
Apart from Brady, the Bucs have also brought in Leonard Fournette, Rob Gronkowski and Antonio Brown to the NFC South. Brady is said to have played a major role in the acquisitions of Gronk and Brown. In fact, there were rumours that Antonio was living with Tom and his wife Gisele Bundchen at their personal residence in Tampa Bay.
Now it appears the ageing quarterback has done his good friend Antonio another favour over the weekend.
