As we wait for Tom Brady's deal with the Buccaneers, some conditions that existed …
• TB wanted a 2-year commitment, backed by guarantees.
• Ask was $60M, but allowed for creativity. This wasn't all about $$$.
• He wanted to give his new team financial flexibility to add.— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) March 19, 2020
Bucs and Tom Brady still trying to finalize contract language as of Wednesday night and those discussions will go into Thursday, per source. Contract language more challenging this off-season than any time in recent memory. No problems forseen with Bucs-Brady, but no deal yet.

Two years at $60 million is absolutely insane for a quarterback in his 40s. Granted Brady isn’t like other quarterbacks.
We’re going to see if he and Bill Belichick can hold their own without one another.
