Tom Brady’s Biggest Celebrity Fan Accurately Predicted Buccaneers Next Move to Overcome Qb Void

In a lot of ways, Tom Brady brought back life into Tampa Bay when he decided to leave the Patriots and venture to Florida. Furthermore, Tampa Bay accepted him as one of their own as he brought titles for them. Therefore, it’s no surprise that his leaving the NFL and the Buccaneers left a huge void. The NFL said goodbye to their GOAT and the Bucs nation said goodbye to the legend that brought them a championship. However, even with Brady’s departure, the show must go on. Like any other franchise, the Bucs must take their loss in stride and bring in someone to take the reins.

As the Bucs finalized the deal with their new quarterback, it came to light that someone had predicted this move a while ago. It comes as a surprise that one of Brady’s biggest celebrity fans had already predicted who would replace him in Tampa.

The accurate prediction of Mark Wahlberg for the replacement of Tom Brady

Being a huge fan of Brady, Wahlberg followed Brady’s journey intensely. He has gone on to keep an eye on Brady’s career since his Patriots day. Wahlberg had made a prediction about who will take over once Brady decides to hang it up. He predicted that none other than Baker Mayfield would be taking Brady’s place as a shot-caller. However, as per TMZ, Wahlberg had made this prediction when Brady was still suiting up in Patriots’ blues.

Wahlberg had predicted that Mayfield would suit up in a Patriots uniform to take over for California Cool. Intriguingly, Wahlberg shares a fondness for Mayfield. The two have even slowly ended up becoming friends. Furthermore, Wahlberg has gone on to praise Mayfield on separate occasions, dating back to 2018. While Wahlberg’s prediction was for New England, his prophecy is coming true in Tampa Bay. After signing with the Bucs, Mayfield might be ready to make his mark and prove that he deserves his contract.

Mayfield’s contract with Tampa Bay to fill in for TB12

Mayfield had a rocky season last year. As he bounced around from Carolina to Los Angeles, the quarterback seemed like he had trouble finding a stable permanent landing spot. However, after the vacancy left by Brady, Mayfield might just have found a home in Florida. The quarterback recently signed a 1-year deal with the Bucs that is worth up to a whopping $8.5 million. The deal supposedly starts at $4 million. Furthermore, Mayfield is expected to compete with the 2021 second-round pick, Kyle Trask for the role of starting quarterback.

While Wahlberg’s prediction went on to become true, no one can say for certain that Mayfield will be able to fill in Brady’s shoes. Only the upcoming season can reveal how Mayfield will make the position of the Bucs’ QB his own.
