BUCCANEERS' TOM BRADY: 'I THINK NEXT YEAR IS GOING TO BE A LOT BETTER THAN THIS YEAR'

"When I realized that it was real, when I realized it was like all the other stuff doesn’t really matter unless it’s the Super Bowl was like after we won the NFC Championship," David said. "You know me, I was all happy and s--t, it was my first. I’m geeked up. Then like I guess somebody was crying. And I guess like, I heard [Brady], just like, ‘What the f–k you crying for?

David continued: "He’s right. You know, I had a little two tears, too. So I wiped my s--t, too… We still got work to do."

In 2020, David had 117 total tackles with 1.5 sacks, 14 tackles for a loss, six passes defended, one interception, three forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries. The Bucs will need David in a big way if they are going to slow down Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
