Tom Brady is away from the team to deal with some personal things

Tom Brady will not return to the Buccaneers until after the team faces the Tennessee Titans. According to head coach Todd Bowles, the Buccaneers ageless quarterback will be stepping away from the team to deal with some personal things, and is not expected to return until after the Bucs and Titans game on August 20th.

Todd Bowles tells us Tom Brady will not return until after the team faces the Titans this preseason. He says this is something that was discussed before training camp started and he’s dealing with a personal matter. #gobucs #nflnetwork

Buccaneers beat reporters then asked Bowles about his level confidence that he would play in week 1 and Bowles was quick to say he feels Brady will be good to go.

Asked about his level of confidence that Brady will start in Week 1 at Dallas, Bowles said: "Mine's pretty high." Asked later to clarify any doubt that would suggest: "There's no doubt. Obviously there's always going to be doubt, but I have a pretty high level of confidence."

This is the first time I can remember that Tom Brady left his team during training camp. I am just praying his family is doing well.
