The Buccaneers were extra sure they quickly recovered Tom Brady's 700th TD pass
The Buccaneers' staffer showed elite awareness, he might have a future on the fields.
The Buccaneers learned from their early season mistake involving a record-setting touchdown pass from Tom Brady. Back in October, when Brady threw his 600th regular season pass, a fan ended up with the ball after Mike Evans tossed the ball into the stands during his celebration.
The fan gave the ball back, but it cost the team memorabilia and it cost Brady himself an entire Bitcoin — worth roughly $50,000 right now.
There was no way they were going to get got again in one of these instances and when 44-year old Tom Brady is the quarterback, milestones are going to be set constantly.
When Brady tossed a game-winning touchdown in overtime to Breshad Perriman, the 700th touchdown pass of his career including the playoffs, a member of the Buccaneers’ staff jumped into action and immediately grabbed the ball before chaos ensued.
If you stay ready, you don’t have to get ready.
Also, it’s fairly remarkable that Brady has played long enough to score 700 touchdowns.
Now, Brady will be looking to add his, uh, eighth Super Bowl ring as a starting quarterback as the season winds down.
