In the 2020 NFL Draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers spent a second round pick on a safety out of the University of Minnesota. That safety has been nothing short of a foundational piece for the Bucs over his first three seasons.
His rookie season set the tone quickly— 16 games played, 94 tackles, 3 sacks, and an interception. Tampa Bay road Antoine Winfield Jr. and their defense to a Super Bowl championship. Winfield Jr. put his own personal finishing touches on his rookie year, with a Super Bowl interception against Patrick Mahomes, and one of the most iconic moments in Buccaneers history.
