• Popculture

The fan who gave Tom Brady's 600th touchdown ball back to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers just earned a big compensation from the team. As mentioned by Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times, Byron Kennedy is getting two signed jerseys and a helmet from Brady. He's also getting a signed jersey and game cleats from Mike Evans as well as a $1,000 credit at the team store. Kennedy also earned two seasons tickets for the remainder of this season as well as next season. Additionally, when Brady appeared on Monday Night Football ManningCast, he said he's also giving Kennedy a Bitcoin. 

"Byron lost all his leverage when he gave up the ball," Brady joked with the Manning brothers, per CBS Sports. "He should've held it. ... (But) I'm also giving him a Bitcoin, so at the end of the day, I think he's making out pretty well." The Bitcoin currency is valued at under $63,000. Kennedy spoke to the NFL Network about the touchdown ball and said he originally didn't want to give it back.
