He did. The next logical step was moving to Florida.

It seemed he was on the decline his last season before he retired, I wouldn't expect that he'll be the same player.

The WWE performance center is in Florida so I guess he can still train?

Probably not, but he also won't need to be - they have enough skill at WR to let Brady spread the ball around (assuming everyone can get on the same page with reads). Plus, now he knows how to get a chair from a manager and hit an opponent in the back when the ref isn't looking - expanded skillset :lol:

The Performance Center is located in Orlando. He would be more than welcome to train at the facility but I doubt it makes sense for him too.

A lot of talk about the Bucs moving OJ Howard. Washington, Green Bay, and Cincy all sound like good landing spots. I'm surprised that the Pats didn't make a play for him in the Gronk trade.

I feel like the Buccaneers are going to disappoint the hype train they’re on right now. Seems like the situation that normally crumbles with these types of moves in the NFL.

their defense is underrated. their numbers arent that hot because Winston was a turnover machine but they have talent there. this is a scary team

They've got a bunch of talent on defense particularly their front seven. The secondary is where it all falls apart.
