Tom Brady Called Out For Taking Government Money During Pandemic

Tom Brady’s company took in a ton of cash thanks to PPP loans, and some vocal people want him to fork it over.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneer QB’s TB12 company took in $960,855 in government money in 2020. A new petition on Change has over 174,000 signatures calling for him to give that money back.

P12 is Brady’s health and wellness company and they received a ton of cash through the Paycheck Protection Program. This was designed to help small business make it through the pandemic. TB12 has 11-50 employees, so they fit the bill.

Brady made “roughly” $263 million in his 21 NFL seasons with Tampa Bay and New England. TB12 grosses $20.3 million annually, and they were forced to temporarily close in March, 2020 due to the pandemic. TB12 received their money in April, 2020 from the U.S Small Business Administration.

We’ll keep you posted on whether Tom Brady gives that money back or not.
