Tom Brady announces he is leaving the New England Patriots
Super Bowl-winning quarterback Tom Brady posts a statement on social media on a new stage for his life and career.
The strangeness of seeing Tom Brady play football in something other than a New England Patriots uniform is something fans and players alike will have to deal with during the 2020 season.
New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan told SiriusXM NFL Radio on Monday that it’s going to be “super weird” for him to see Brady in the same division as him and playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Jordan, 30, said he was about 9 or 10 when the Patriots initially drafted Brady.

“The fact that he’ll be in my division gives me more chances to hit him, hopefully,” Jordan said. “You talk about somebody whose just been known as one of the greatest of all time for all six Super Bowls that he’s won, he’s a winner. And for that to be in my conference, I’m not excited about it.
“At the same time, I sort of am. I would love to welcome him to the NFC South which we’ve had the last three years. But we know the talent that he has," Jordan continued. "He has Mike Evans. He has (Chris) Godwin. He has O.J. Howard. They’ve got Bruce Arians now and now you’ve got Tom Brady so it’s just exciting for them to be in our conference.”
