Tom Brady returned to the Buccaneers on Monday after an 11-day absence in the middle of the team’s training camp. The somewhat surprising hiatus led rumors to run rampant, including one that implied the 45-year-old quarterback may have been away from practice to be a contestant on the TV show The Masked Singer.
While he may not have been making a foray into the world of singing competition shows, Brady reportedly came back to practice and didn’t skip a beat at doing what he does best: play football.
According to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times, the Buccaneers had one of their best practices of the offseason with Brady back under center. A member of the organization told Stroud that the seven-time Super Bowl champion “was on fire” during the practice, even though he’d been away from the team since Aug. 11.
