Buccaneers Camp Notes: Rain Gain

Related Topics: Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 2017 training camp is taking place in the shadow of an enormous construction project, as the team's new indoor facility is taking shape just to the south of the practice fields. Upon its completion, the facility will allow the Buccaneers to escape oppressive heat and inclement weather any time they choose to work out indoors.

Heat and fast-moving rainstorms are summer staples in Tampa, of course, and the Bucs got their first taste of rain in this year's camp on Saturday morning. Most of the 102-minute practice was dry, but a storm rolled in quickly near the end, turning the final 18-play full-team period into an impromptu "wet ball" drill.
