TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Tom Brady has no regrets about pushing his teammates to be their best. The seven-time Super Bowl champion didn’t hold back in responding to Baker Mayfield’s recent comments that Brady created a “stressful environment” during the 2022 season, his last with the Buccaneers. After Mayfield threw his second touchdown pass to give Tampa Bay a 14-0 lead over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, Brady shared his thoughts from the booth about his replacement’s criticism. Brady said “I thought stressful was not having Super Bowl rings.”
