However, as the weekend comes close, Brady has a problem. With the O-Line facing injury issues and Mike Evans getting a suspension, he has some troubles. But a notable sportswriter may have figured out the Bucs’ next step for the WR dilemma.

During the PFT broadcast, Mike Florio and Peter King discussed the Buccaneers vs. Packers game. They discuss the possibility of them playing for the last time. They also talk about Tom Brady and his offensive line troubles. Sportswriter King reflected on who could be TB12’s new WR1.

Tom Brady could have a new pass catcher

Peter King mentioned, “It will really impress me this week if he puts up 30 because his number-one receiver, just might be Cole Beasley in this game, who he met ten minutes ago. And so this is a home opener, the emotion blah blah, blah blah blah. But I have a feeling that the Bucks are going to have to wear name tags in this game for all the people who are going to be new and people really don’t know.”

Mike Florio reinforced King’s claims. He stated that Mike Evans got suspended and would not participate. Chris Godwin has a hamstring problem after a ruptured ACL, and Julio Jones has a knee injury. Even Scotty Miller is out with a calf strain. Tampa Bay’s injury report does not look good for the franchise.
