In an earlier report Sunday, NFL Network reported that there is still a possibility quarterback Tom Brady could still play for the Buccaneers in 2022. But in case that possibility does not come close to reality, reports suggest Tampa Bay has a back-up plan already in the works.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero both wrote that in case a Brady return does not occur, the Bucs have been looking into the possibility of trying to land Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson and Russell Wilson.
Should he remain retired, the Bucs have shifted their focus to other veteran QBs who could be available via trade.
