The rich get richer and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers aren’t the exception to that rule. After replacing Jameis Wiston with Tom Brady and adding Rob Gronkowski and Leonard Fournette, they’ve now capped it off with the signing of Antonio Brown.

The controversial wideout is one of the most polarizing figures in the NFL, as he just can’t seem to stay out of trouble. However, when locked in, not many defenders on earth can keep him away from the ball.

That’s why Tom Brady has taken him under his wing and pretty much making sure that he stays right on track by welcoming him into his home in Tampa Bay while he gets settled with the team.

Tom Brady Says Antonio Brown Is A Good Friend And He’s Helping Him Get Settled

The quarterback reached out to Jim Gray of Westwood One to talk about how Brown is trying to stay out of trouble and buy into the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ system while being a guest in the Brady household:

Antonio is a good friend of mine and, again, we’ve gotten to know each other pretty well over the years. So he’s just getting settled and I know he’s looking for places, but it’s just nice to be able to have him around,” Brady said.

“And we’re getting to work and he likes to be integrated into what we’re doing, big transition for him moving across the state really not knowing anyone. So, you know, again, just trying to be a great teammate and help someone out who’s a friend of mine,” number 12 added.

Tom Brady Lauds Antonio Browns’ Work Ethic

Brady and Brown worked out together briefly when they were teammates in the New England Patriots, so Antonio’s work ethic wasn’t new to the gunslinger. Then again, he still took the time to tip his hat off to him for how invested he is in getting back to the league:

“He’s obviously a very hard worker, and he’s working his way into the program, into the Bucs program. He’s been involved in a lot of the meetings. He hasn’t been able to do any practices yet but I know he’s been kind of training and getting ready for it,” Brady concluded.

Antonio Brown has everything to be once again one of the most disruptive and dominant forces in the league and it’s nice to see Brady look out for him, as he knows this will be his last chance to make a roster and, who knows? Even win a Super Bowl.
