Fournette and the Bucs reportedly agreed to a one-year, $3.25 million deal on Friday, with the chance to make up to $4 million in incentives, and with that Tampa signed all 22 offensive and defensive starters from their championship team.

The Bucs are the first team to keep all their offensive and defensive starters from a Super Bowl win since the 1977 Raiders, according to The Tampa Bay Times. 

Brady signed a contract extension earlier this month that will keep him playing with the Bucs through the 2022 season. He initially signed a $50 million deal in March 2020 but the organization made it clear after the Super Bowl that they wanted to keep him around for as long as he’s willing to play. 

Bucs' general manager Jason Licht said Friday during an appearance on SiriusXM’s NFL Radio that  he is "beyond excited."
