“I Kind of Saw it Coming” – Avengers Star Reveals He Expected Tom Brady to Leave New England Patriots

Tom Brady spent the entirety of his NFL career with the New England Patriots until 2020. He pulled off a cheeky move on the entire NFL fraternity by announcing his exit from the Patriots at the start of 2020. However, the iconic quarterback went a step further and surprised his loyal fans by announcing his decision to join Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the offseason.

Brady signed a two-year contract with $50 million in guarantees. The six-time NFL Super Bowl winner will also make $4.5-$5 million in additional incentives. ‘Tampa Brady’ will link-up with former Patriots teammate Rob Gronkowski at Tampa Bay.

Chris Evans talks about the Tom Brady departure, life in quarantine and more

Former Marvel Universe actor, Chris Evans is a vocal supporter of the Patriots. In a recent interview with Today.com, ‘Captain America’ spoke about Tom Brady’s exit and life in a pandemic.

“I mean, I hate to say it, I kind of saw it coming. I was anticipating and bracing for it… and you know what, I could never, ever, ever harbor any ill will. He gave 20 years of some of the best football memories I’ll ever have. So I wish him well,” he said.

The popular Hollywood personality also spoke about how he’s adjusting to the “new normal” amidst the pandemic.

“Yeah, it’s just me and Dodger [his dog]. You know, it’s tricky because it’s such a stupid thing — but I consider myself an introvert! I am… It takes a while before I need social interaction,” Evans added.

Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski have certainly taken up a challenge in Florida. At 42, Brady has proved time and again that he still has more to offer in the NFL. Maybe a change of scenery will reignite his competitive flame. The California-born man threw for 4,000+ yards last season and made 24 TDs. Will he live up to expectations from fans in Florida this season?
