Tom Brady scores rushing TD on first Buccaneers drive
by Justin TaschTom Brady wasted no time scoring his first Buccaneers touchdown.
The 43-year-old led Tampa Bay on a nine-play, 85-yard scoring drive, finishing it off with a 2-yard rushing touchdown on a quarterback sneak to give the Bucs an early 7-0 lead over the Saints on Sunday.
Brady, who left the Patriots this offseason following two decades with the organization, completed both of his pass attempts for 37 yards on the opening drive.
Brady’s Buccaneers debut came after the Patriots won their first game of the post-Brady era, as Cam Newton ran for two scores of his own in the New England’s 21-11 win over the Dolphins.
