Report: Vinny Testaverde's Son Vincent, Buccaneers Agree to Contract
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers drafted Miami quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Vinny Testaverde first overall in 1987. Thirty-two years later, they signed his son to a contract.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Monday that Vincent Testaverde, who tossed 11 touchdown passes and threw for 1,714 yards at the University of Albany last season, inked a deal with his father's former team.
Per Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk, the younger Testaverde took part in Tampa Bay's rookie minicamp.
Testaverde backed up Texas Tech quarterback and reigning NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes at Texas Tech before transferring to Miami. He then left for Division-I FCS Albany, where he started for much of the 2018 season.
