Buccaneers: 5 players that deserve a spot in the Pro Bowl
By Rob Leeds
During his past 20 seasons in the NFL, Tom Brady has made the Pro Bowl 14 times, which is tied for first all-time and leaves Brady first amongst active players. While he was absent from the 2019 roster, Brady has proven throughout his career that he is a lock more often than not.

On top of name-recognition, which should be enough in its own right to get Brady plenty of votes, his performance has been one of the best in the league this season.
When compared to NFC opponents, Brady is third in passing yards and third in touchdown passes, so the stats speak for themselves. These impressive stats mixed with Brady’s name and the Buccaneers’ success should make this a sure-fire selection later this year.
Brady has been one of the more prominent difference-makers for the Bucs this year and deserves every bit of recognition possible. The new quarterback has been one of the only changes on the offense, yet he has meshed with his new team as well as any quarterback in the history of the team.
Tom Brady has made some questionable plays at times this season, but the Buccaneers’ starting quarterback should make the Pro Bowl for the first time since Jameis Winston in 2015.
