Florida man returns to wreak havoc on Panthers

Well, that didn’t take long.

On Sunday night, former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady became current Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady upon declaring his un-retirement. The seven-time Super Bowl champion, three-time Most Valuable Player and the NFL’s all-time passing leader in . . .

*checks records*

. . . everything, is now prepared to return for his 23rd professional season.

These past two months I’ve realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands. That time will come. But it’s not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. I’m coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business LFG pic.twitter.com/U0yhRKVKVm

Brady, back on Feb. 1, initially announced his retirement after a few days of heavy speculation regarding his future. But that future, perhaps to nobody’s surprise, will still be on the field because over two decades of dominance simply isn’t enough.

As far as how this impacts the Carolina Panthers, they’ll again be subjected to Brady twice a season—or at least for 2022. The 44-year-old has owned Carolina since joining the NFC South in 2020, leading the Buccaneers to a 4-0 mark over their poor division rivals at a disgusting 150-to-63 point differential.

This latest development will also presumably lighten the competition for Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson. In addition to David Tepper’s Panthers, Tampa Bay was expected to be one of the most interested pursuers of the soon-to-be traded three-time Pro Bowler.

Either way, the team already seems to be taking the news well . . .
