Cheating, ball deflating, spy-taping Tom Brady set to sign with Tampa Bay

Bruce Arians must be grinning ear-to-ear. I just pray we don't end up with Jamies Winston. 

Six-time Super Bowl winner Tom Brady is expected to sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter and Jeff Darlington. 

According to the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the two have agreed upon a deal in principle at a contract valued at roughly $30 million per year. 

While there is no official announcement date set up between Brady and the Buccaneers, the Chargers, another reported leading suitor, believe they are "out of the running" for Brady after making him an offer, according to NFL Network's Jim Trotter. The Brady camp, per Trotter, "has led the Chargers to believe he is going to stay back East because of family considerations."

Brady announced on Tuesday morning that he would be leaving New England after 20 seasons. He announced his decision in a social media post titled "Forever A Patriot."

“To all my teammates, coaches, executives and staff, Coach Belichick, RKK and the Kraft family and the entire organization," Brady wrote, "I want to say thank you for the past twenty years of my life and the daily commitment to winning and creating a winning club built on great values.

"Although my football journey will take place elsewhere, I appreciated everything that we have achieved and am grateful for our incredible TEAM accomplishments. I have been privileged to have had the opportunity to know each and every one of you, and to have the memories we’ve created together.”

The 42-year-old Brady had never tested the open market before this offseason and questions about his future picked up steam upon the Patriots' sudden Wild Card round loss to the Titans.
