Fournette was signed on a one-year deal after just three seasons in Jacksonville. He will push for a spot in head coach Bruce Arians’ dreaded offense this season.
Since signing for the Buccaneers, Fournette has bombarded social media with hilarious posts about his new teammates. One person who features in multiple posts is star summer signing, Tom Brady.

“I don’t really worry about expectations. Football is football. I’ve been playing the same game for 25 years. I mean, for the first time in my life, I really have a quarterback. So that’s eye-opening for me.”
“And not a lot of pressure is gonna come on me. As far as game-planning and changing things, it’s great for me. I’m happy to be back there with one of the greatest, well, the greatest that’s played this game, and I get to learn from him too. My first two days here, I was sitting here talking to him about other defenses, what he expects, what I expect from him, you know our expectations because they’re high right now. But we have to start with each other on the team to understand each other and get a better communication before anything,” Fournette said via NFL Network.
The Buccaneers start their 2020 season with a mouth-watering tie against Drew Brees-led New Orleans Saints. Coach Bruce Arians will be eager to get off to a flying start with TB12 on his roster this year. Can the Bucs shatter all expectations and make the Super Bowl? Time will tell.
