Giovani Bernard found a perfect fit with the Buccaneers.
The Buccaneers needed a new third-down back badly. LeSean McCoy and Leonard Fournette didn’t cut it last season, and Tom Brady needed help in the passing game that was never provided. Sure, the Bucs won the Super Bowl, but the void at third-down back was painfully clear. Fortunately for everyone, Giovani Bernard fixes that considerable problem.
Bernard was an obvious candidate for the Bucs to pursue as soon as he was released from the Bengals.
