Peter King Identifies ‘Sleeping Giant’ Team In Tom Brady Free Agency Sweepstakes (VIDEO)
by Darrelle LincolnCould you imagine Tom Brady and Jameis Winston on the same team?
I’m pretty sure you can’t, but Peter King believes it might be a possibility.
Earlier this week, King appeared on WEEI’s “Dale & Keefe” show to discuss the New England Patriots QB’s impending free agency and where he might end up. While most people have brought up the Raiders, Chargers, and even the Colts — King suggested the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as a potential landing spot.
“The one I believe is the sleeping giant in this is Tampa Bay,” King said. “And, when I say that, if Jameis Winston is realistic with what his contract demands are, in my opinion, he’ll be the quarterback of the Bucs next year. But, I don’t know that, I’m hearing some things out of Tampa that he might want a little bit more money than the Bucs wanna pay. And we’ll see if that pans out.
” … They got a pretty good offensive line, and they’ve got two excellent receivers. They’ve got a really good, young tight end. And they’ve got a very imaginative head coach and offensive coordinator in the passing game. So, I can’t tell you absolutely what they would do, or what they’re going to do. But I can tell you that they’re fascinating, to me. … When I think about Tampa Bay and Tom Brady, it makes as much sense to me as any of these other teams out here with the possible exception of the Chargers.”
All of this depends on what the franchise will do with Jameis Winston, but it is really hard to even imagine Brady in a Bucs uniform.
Brady stated himself that he’s keeping an “open mind” in free agency.
