Tom Brady's Bucs Workouts Continue, Despite NFLPA Recommendation

Tampa Bay's new QB was back on the field with his new teammates Tuesday, despite a recent statement from the NFLPA on private group workouts.

When the NFLPA put out a statement recommending that players not work out privately in groups in preparation for the 2020 NFL season, we thought that would spell the end of Tom Brady's group workouts with this new Tampa Bay Buccaneers teammates.

Instead, Brady and a group of Bucs were back at Tampa's Berkeley Preparatory School on Tuesday, like they have been throughout the offseason (via the Tampa Bay Times):

The NFLPA recommends players stop "practicing together" until the start of training camps in late July. Despite the warning, the #Bucs' Tom Brady and Co. were back at informal practice Tuesday. https://t.co/Wu062Fnhtc

Brady was joined by a handful of teammate from both sides of the ball for Tuesday's session, including his former New England Patriots teammate, tight end Rob Gronkowski. Brady posted the following photo on social media after the workout (via Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times):

It remains to be seen if the team will intervene in response to the NFLPA's recommendation, but it looks like Brady is more interested in building chemistry with his new teammates in Tampa Bay than following those guidelines.
