Latest On Buccaneers C Ryan Jensen

There’s some hope that Ryan Jensen‘s season could be salvaged, and the Buccaneers will remain flexible and keep the door open for a late-season return. According to Greg Auman of The Athletic (on Twitter), the team won’t be placing Jensen on IR until after final cuts. The Buccaneers could open a spot on their 90-man […]

Tom Brady To Miss Some Time For Personal Reasons

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that quarterback Tom Brady won't be back with the team until after the preseason game against the Tennessee Titans, which is on Aug. 20. Brady wasn't at training camp practice on Thursday for personal, non-football reasons. The 45-year-old GOAT will miss some valuable time to gain chemistry with the likes of receivers Russell Gage and veteran Julio Jones, but he'll probably be just fine in the long run. In his absence, Blaine Gabbert, Kyle Trask and Ryan Griffin will get more work with the offense in practices and preseason games. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned right now, as Brady is expected to be ready to go by Week 1 of the regular season.

Tom Brady Returns To The Team

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is back at training camp practice on Saturday after a day off and some personal days. There's really nothing to see here. The future first-ballot Hall of Famer hasn't practiced in a few days, but we think he'll be just fine. He'll also be held out of the team's first preseason game on Aug. 13 against the Miami Dolphins, as will plenty of the team's other starters. The 45-year-old GOAT recently got two new offensive weapons in wide receiver Julio Jones and tight end Kyle Rudolph, which only raises his fantasy ceiling for the 2022 season. In his 22nd NFL season last year, Brady led the league in attempts (719), completions (485), passing yards (5,316), touchdown passes (43) and yards per game (312.7).

Tom Brady Excused From Practice Friday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady was excused from Friday's training camp practice due to a personal matter. Brady also got a day off on Wednesday, and the Buccaneers had the day off on Thursday, so Brady will now have a third straight day off. In the grand scheme of things, this is probably a non-issue. The Bucs will unsurprisingly hold Brady out of their first preseason game next week on Aug. 13 against the Miami Dolphins as well. The 45-year-old GOAT shouldn't be seen as an elite QB1 in fantasy, but he's firmly in the QB1 ranks, especially after the Buccaneers added veteran receiver Julio Jones and tight end Kyle Rudolph recently. Another plus for Brady: Chris Godwin's (knee) recovery from a torn ACL last year is going well, and he has a realistic chance to be ready for Week 1.

Tom Brady Won't Play In First Preseason Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that quarterback Tom Brady and many other starters will not play in the team's first preseason game next Saturday, Aug. 13, against the Miami Dolphins. This shouldn't come as a huge surprise to anyone as the Bucs look to keep the future Hall of Famer healthy for the start of the 2022 regular season. With Brady watching on the sidelines, backup Blaine Gabbert will likely get the start next weekend. The 45-year-old living legend led the NFL in completions (485), attempts (719), passing yards (5,316), touchdowns (43) and yards per game (312.7) in his second year in Tampa, and although he's not a high-end QB1 target, he'll certainly be in the QB1 mix yet again in 2022, even without trusty sidekick Rob Gronkowski.

Ryan Jensen May Have Suffered "Serious" Knee Injury

Tampa Bay Buccaneers center Ryan Jensen (knee) was carted off the field during training camp on Wednesday. To make matters even worse, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported there is now fear the Pro Bowler may have suffered a "serious" knee injury. The 31-year-old will undergo more testing over the next few days to determine the severity of the ailment. However, if Jensen misses time, it won't be good news for the 44-year-old Tom Brady, who will need all the support he can get to remain upright in 2022-23.

Rob Gronkowski Won't Unretire For Tom Brady

Retired tight end Rob Gronkowski said that he will remain retired from professional football, even if Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady calls him to try and persuade him to come back in 2022. "I would answer, obviously, the greatest quarterback of all time," Gronkowski said. "Ask him how he's doing. Tell him I'm going good. But I wouldn't go back to football no." Gronk's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said that it wouldn't surprise him if Gronk returned to the gridiron, but as of right now, Gronk doesn't have the itch to return. The 33-year-old's body has taken a beating in his 11 seasons in the NFL, but in his prime, he was one of the best tight ends of all time. With O.J. Howard now in Buffalo, Cameron Brate should have a much bigger role in Tampa if Gronk indeed stays retired.

Tom Brady Has Been Better In His 40s

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady has more passing yards and touchdown passes since he turned 40 than he did in his 20s. In his 20s, Brady had 21,564 passing yards and 147 touchdowns, while he has 22,938 passing yards and 168 TD passes in his 40s. He played 94 games in his 20s, while he's only played 81 games so far in his 40s. Brady will turn 45 during training camp this year after leading the NFL in pass attempts (719), completions (485), yards (5,316) and touchdown passes (43) at 44 years old in 2021. All of those marks were career-highs for him except for the TD passes. He's the oldest player ever to lead the league in passing yards or TD passes. We could go on with impressive career statistics from Brady, but you get the picture. He's not slowing down and will once again be a strong QB1 target in fantasy.
