It’s no secret that Tom Brady is planning to prove all his doubters wrong this year. The veteran NFL quarterback’s unprecedented move to Tampa Bay Buccaneers is not just a mission to make one big pay-check.
Even at the age of 42, Mr. NFL, Tom Brady, is motivated to show that he still has the ‘X-Factor’ in him.
Maurice Jones-Drew, Former Jacksonville Jaguars and Oakland Raiders player, feels the same. During a recent segment of Good Morning Football, Maurice spoke about how Tom Brady’s arrival in Florida could impact the performance of the Bucs heading into the 2020 season.

The only thing missing for Brady and the Patriots that year was a Super Bowl trophy at the end of the post-season.
It will be interesting to see if the six-time Super Bowl winner can match those standards in Tampa Bay this year. Agreed, age is not on his side at this point in time.
However, the ‘Comeback kid’ has proved time and again that age is just a number in his case.
