Tom Brady Praises 'Very Personable, Outgoing' Bucs OC Byron Leftwich

Tom Brady will have to learn a new offense as he begins his career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but the transition to working with offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich is seemingly going well.

"I think Byron gets along with just about everybody he comes in contact with, 'cause he's a very personable, outgoing guy," Brady said, per Jenna Laine of ESPN. "He's got great football knowledge. We both have made a huge commitment in our lives to do that, and it'll be fun to take on this challenge together."

Leftwich spent nine years in the NFL as a player, but he's going into his third year as an offensive coordinator, including his second with the Buccaneers.
