“Me and Playoff Lenny gonna work this out”: Antonio Brown hints at Tampa Bay Buccaneers return for him and Leonard Fournette in 2021

“Me and Playoff Lenny gonna work this out.” That’s what WR Antonio Brown had to say when a fan asked him if he will be returning to the Bucs in 2021. Could Brown and Fournette re-sign and help the Bucs defend their Super Bowl title?

After winning Super Bowl 55, the Bucs succeeded in their mission to “run it back”, at least a majority of it. After resigning tight end Rob Gronkowski, linebackers Shaquil Barret and Lavonte David, and placing the franchise tag on WR Chris Godwin, the defending Super Bowl champs managed to keep a lot of their band together.

However, some of the members of the 2020 squad are still on the free agency market, including WR Antonio Brown and RB Leonard “Playoff Lenny” Fournette.

Antonio Brown hinted at a return on social media

In a recent Instagram Live, Brown indicated that he believes he can work something out with the Bucs. He also said that goes for fellow ex-Bucs player Leonard Fournette, who is also out of contract with the team.

“Me and playoff Lenny gonna work this out,” Brown said. He didn’t give a timetable on “when” that might happen though.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers GM Jason Licht proved he’s one of the best in the league. Several analysts were skeptical of the Bucs Super bowl Hopes in 2021 because they didn’t believe the Bucs could bring the defense back. But in a shock to everyone, Licht managed to sign both Lavonte David and Shaq Barrett while keeping Chris Godwin to the franchise tag

Both Antonio Brown and Leonard Fournette came alive in the playoffs to help the Tampa Bay Buccaneers win their second ever Super Bowl. If GM Licht can work his magic and structure a deal to re-sign both Brown and Fournette while keeping the Bucs under the cap, Tampa Bay will have officially “run it back”.
