The debate about who will wear No. 12 next season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ended yesterday when wide receiver Chris Godwin gifted the number to six-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady.
TB12 left the New England Patriots after 20 years and nine Super Bowl appearances, and his arrival in Tampa Bay is already being heralded as the greatest free-agent signing ever by the franchise. Now, we officially know what number he will don as a member of the Buccaneers.
Godwin, who switched to No. 14, had worn 12 since his high school days, but clearly had no problem giving it to the future Hall of Famer. Godwin even took to Instagram to celebrate the news.
Best of all, both Brady and Bucs wide receiver Mike Evans chimed in to comment.
