The Facts: Those rumors of Brown possibly following Tom Brady to Tampa Bay can go up in smoke. NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Thursday that the Bucs likely won't be adding Brown, despite his close relationship with TB12.

Diehards Line:Brady played one game with Brown in New England last season after the wideout was cut by the Raiders. The Patriots then released Brown following further allegations of sexual assault. It's notable that other teams believed Brady wanted to bring AB along to his next destination. It seems clear, however, it wasn't a deal-breaker as the Ex-Pats QB is set to sign in Tampa.
