DeForest Buckner Has A Perfect Answer To Tom Brady’s Question

“If I’m playing football at 44, that means I’m down,” Buckner said.

That joke is not at Brady’s expense, because of the record. He’s not suggesting Brady needs money at this stage in his career. NS Colts lineman simply said that playing football is difficult and that it would take serious financial pressure to keep him on the field as long as Brady.

It helps that Brady is a quarterback and perhaps doesn’t have to meet the physical demands that Buckner faces in a defensive role.

Even so, football careers are generally short-lived for a reason. At a certain point, you either can’t physically complete it or you lose the mental motivation to keep brooding. The fact that Brady has managed both over two decades is impressive.

Buckner and the Colts will face Brady and the Buccaneers on Sunday in Indianapolis.

Buckner has 4.5 pitches this season and 11 quarterbacks. He will be hoping the midfielder shows his age and gives him some chances to get him on the ground.
