Former Michigan Athlete of the Week: Tom Brady

I know we’re a few weeks into the 2020 season and I haven’t posted one of these yet, but I’m going to try to bring it back now that we’re back to games and I’m not still doing the season countdown.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady completed 33/45 passes for 369 yards and 4 touchdowns in a 45-20 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Brady has now thrown the most touchdown passes in NFL history, surpassing Drew Brees.

What are the Patriots going to do at quarterback now that Tom Brady is going to the Buccaneers? (LINK)

What do you guys think about Brady playing somewhere other than New England?

Here are some notable NFL moves:

• Chiefs (and former Michigan) QB Chad Henne re-signed with K.C. for two years to be the backup to Pat Mahomes.
• Former Packers OT Bryan Bulaga is signing with the Chargers.
• Former Patriots/Browns LB Jamie Collins is signing with the Lions.
• Former Bears QB Chase Daniel is signing with the Lions to be Matt Stafford’s backup.
• Former Colts QB Philip Rivers is signing with the Colts.
• Former Chargers FB Derek Watt is going to the Steelers. This is only noteworthy to me because he’ll be on the same team as his brother, T.J. Watt, which is pretty cool.
• Former Vikings CB Trae Waynes is headed to the Bengals.
• Former Cowboys TE Jason Witten is signing with the Raiders.

NOTE: A lot of people aren’t working, so I’m temporarily suspending the NSFW rules.
