DeForest Buckner has a hilarious perspective on Tom Brady

Amongst the many incredible things about Tom Brady, his mind-boggling longevity ranks at the top. The quarterback’s longevity is something we’ve never seen before and I doubt we will ever see. After all, we are talking about an athlete leading his team to the highest glory in his niche at 43.

Indianapolis Colts defensive lineman DeForest Buckner ahead of his clash against the Bucs was asked about the quarterback’s longevity. In response, the Colts player cheekily replied that if he’s playing for such a long time, it most likely means he has no money. Speaking to Stephen Holder of the Athletic, the 27-year-old said“If I’m playing football at 44, it means I’m broke.” Hilarious.
