Tampa Bay Buccaneers stars were 'relieved' Tom Brady retired from NFL

Tampa Bay Buccaneers players are reportedly ‘relieved, rejuvenated and recharged’ following the retirement of Tom Brady and his distractions that derailed the 2022 season.

Brady won an unprecedented seven Super Bowls over an illustrious career that spanned two decades with the New England Patriots - where he won six of his championships - and three seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, winning Super Bowl LV. As a result of his longevity and unprecedented success, the former quarterback is considered by many to be the greatest in NFL history.

The 45-year-old retired from the NFL in February after an underwhelming and difficult 2022 with the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay staggered to an 8-9 record, winning the lowly NFC South before crashing out of the playoffs in the first round against the Dallas Cowboys.
