After spending nine (mostly) losing seasons in Tampa Bay, Bucs linebacker Lavonte David was starving for success when Tom Brady signed with the team in March of 2020.
By the end of that year, David would be hoisting the Lombardi Trophy right alongside the GOAT.
That 2020 season was full of iconic stories from Brady and the Bucs, and during his recent appearance on “The Rich Eisen Show,” David recounted a couple of his favorite stories from the legendary quarterback.
As it turns out, Brady didn’t spend a ton of time making “rah rah” speeches to his Tampa Bay teammates throughout that season.
But when he did speak up, it made quite an impact:
Incredible story from @Buccaneers LB @LavonteDavid54 about @TomBrady first season in Tampa — did the GOAT really not give a pregame speech until the actual Super Bowl??#NFL #GoBucs #TomBradyRoast pic.twitter.com/mWTiuLzuJH

And the rest, as they say, is history.
