In this season plagued by the coronavirus, the National Football League couldn’t have scripted its ultimate game any better.
Tom Brady leaves New England and signs a two-year, $50 million deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Long ago, the Super Bowl was slated to be played in 2021 at Raymond James Stadium, the Bucs’ home field.
After vanquishing the Packers and Aaron Rodgers on Sunday, Brady, the seemingly ageless 43-year-old quarterback, in two weeks will be playing in the Super Bowl for the 10th time, and the home team will be hosting the big game for the Lombardi Trophy for the first time in the event’s 55-year history.
