After being absent for personal reasons for several days and missing some training sessions with the institution, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have quarterback Tom Brady back, as the coach announced to the group Todd Bowles according to Greg Auman of ‘The Athletic’.
Bowles said on August 11 that Brady he wouldn’t be back until after Saturday’s preseason game against the Tennessee Titans. However, speculation increased when Bowles said there was no return date for Brady to return to the gridirons.

Brady’s absence theory
Despite the fact that Bowles ruled that the quarterback’s absence was due only to personal reasons that he had to attend to. There’s a theory from some fans that there’s something more to Brady’s downtime at Bucs training camp.
Some point out that Brady went to record the program ‘The Masked Singer’ and even some reporters pointed out that the times coincide with the recording dates of the same. In addition, the 45-year-old veteran signed a contract with FOX to be a commentator once he retires, curiously the same network that broadcasts the program in the United States.
If true, Brady would join another group of NFL players who were on the show. They include Antonio Brown (Hippo), Terry Bradshaw (Deer), Rob “Gronk” Gronkowski (White Tiger), Mark Sanchez (Baby Alien), and Jordan Mailata (Thingamabob).
Brady could watch a few minutes of the final preseason game against the Indianapolis Coltsbefore making their official debut of the season when they face the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium.
