DURHAM, N.C. – Two former Duke captains -- Ross Cockrell and Thaddeus Lewis -- will represent the Blue Devils as members of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV.
Cockrell is active as a cornerback, while Lewis serves on the staff as part of the Bill Walsh coaching fellow program. The duo has helped the Bucs win three postseason road games so far, but they will be heading home to Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla., for their 6:30 p.m. matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Cockrell becomes the 17th former Blue Devil to suit up during a Super Bowl and the fifth over the last 10 years.
