Before joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tom Brady left behind a championship dynasty with the New England Patriots. His success directly correlated to the success of his team, and he won a total of six championships throughout his 20 seasons in New England.

In that span, many teammates came and went, picking up a few championships with the Pats along the way. Rob Gronkowski contributed to three of the team's championships before joining Brady for another one with the Buccaneers, and, just recently, retiring.

Although Gronk retired earlier this week, Brady still has a piece of New England with him on the Buccaneers. He was reunited with another former Patriots teammate back in March. The Buccaneers received Shaq Mason in exchange for a fifth-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.

The guard voiced his opinion on reuniting with Brady during his time on SiriusXM NFL Radio Friday morning.

“It means the world,” Mason said on joining the quarterback in Tampa Bay. “I was with him for my first five seasons, so it's great just being back with him and just having a familiar guy behind me. He demands the best out of everyone around him, and you know what you're getting out of him day in and day out. I couldn't ask to be around a better guy.”

The two became teammates when the Patriots selected Mason in the fourth round of the 2015 NFL Draft. They played and won two Super Bowls together until Brady's departure for the Buccaneers in 2020.
