As the Tampa Bay Buccaneers gear up for a decisive game against the New Orleans Saints, Baker Mayfield finds himself in the spotlight. With playoff hopes and franchise records hanging in the balance, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Amid the pressure, Mayfield has received valuable support and recognition from none other than Tom Brady.
The legendary quarterback, whose single-season touchdown record Mayfield is close to breaking, shared his admiration and advice for the Bucs‘ current QB. “Man, he can rip the ball,” Brady remarked, highlighting Mayfield’s powerful arm. Yet, Brady’s focus wasn’t solely on Mayfield’s physical skills. “What I love seeing him do though, is just be patient in the pocket, let the game come to him. He does not have to play hero ball; he’s got a good run game,” Brady added.
