Tom Brady has yet to take a snap for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but the organization is already feeling the effects of having him on their roster. Not even a week after he signed with the Buccaneers, Brady's Tampa Bay jersey is already flying off the shelves.
After officially signing with the Buccaneers on Friday, fans in Tampa Bay are beginning to stock up on jerseys for next season. As a matter of fact, Brady became the top-selling player on Fanatics on Friday. In addition, the Buccaneers became the top-selling team across all sports.
At this point, it still isn't official what number that Brady will be sporting in 2020. Regardless of what number he wears for the Buccaneers, the sales of his jerseys increased by 900 percent according to Fanatics. Of course, Chris Godwin currently wears the No. 12 jersey for Tampa Bay.
If Brady wants to wear No. 12 next season for the Buccaneers, he'll likely need to negotiate a deal with Godwin. The big-play wideout spoke on Friday about the situation involving him possibly letting Brady have his number in 2020.
With the Buccaneers somehow landing Brady in free agency, they've instantly become the main attraction in the state of Florida. After going 7-9 in 2019, Tampa Bay is considered a front-runner to make the Super Bowl next season.
Besides jersey sales, the Buccaneers have seen a noticeable increase in ticket sales after signing Brady. Heading into the second season under Bruce Arians, Tampa Bay appears to be going all-in over the next two years. Even if the Buccaneers don't win a Super Bowl, signing Brady is going to have quite a few perks for the foreseeable future.
