Were it not for a global pandemic stealing the headlines, it would probably seem like a bigger deal that Tom Brady is no longer a member of the New England Patriots, with whom he went to more Super Bowls than any other individual franchise and also tied the Pittsburgh Steelers for the most Super Bowl trophies.
His success there is unparalleled, but he has willingly chosen to move on during the final leg of his career, signing a contract to join the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Oddly enough, Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger knows something of what he is getting himself into as he heads for more hospitable weather during the football season.
