TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers co-owner Bryan Glazer said Monday that defensive end Simeon Rice, who amassed 122 sacks in 12 seasons and helped lead the Bucs to a Super Bowl XXXVII victory, is "overdue" for a call from the Pro Football Hall of Fame and that "it's time to rectify that oversight."
In announcing Rice as the newest member of the Buccaneer Ring of Honor, with an induction ceremony set for Nov. 30 when the Bucs host the Arizona Cardinals, where Rice spent the first five seasons of his career, Glazer pointed to the numbers.
