After playing the 2020 season through injury with a torn MCL,spending the offseason doing rehab and undergoing surgery, Tom Brady will appear in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ opening game of the 2021 NFL preseason against the Bengals.

Unlike most of the other teams in the league, who don’t risk their starting quarterbacks on these types of games, the Bucs will see Brady step into the field and get some real practice ahead of the new season.

Bruce Arians wasn’t happy with the team’s practice on Monday and considers the offense needs some work, and so does every player in the roster. So it seems like we’re going to see plenty of familiar faces on Saturday.
