For many NFL fans looking for entertainment amid the coronavirus’ forced social distancing, this is great news. But for New England residents still reeling over Brady’s decision to take his talents to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after a storied career with the Pats, it might not be the escape they’re looking for.
Brace yourself for the nostalgia.
