TAMPA, Fla. - Tampa Bay Buccaneers Pro Bowl defensive tackle Gerald McCoy has one modest request of rookie defensive tackle Vita Vea, whom the Bucs selected with the 11th overall pick in this year's draft: he has to go by "Maui" from the Disney film "Moana."
"I told him he has to tell my children that he is Maui from Moana," McCoy said. "When he introduces himself to my kids - this is the only rookie duty I'm going to give him, ain't no dinner, none of that - make sure that when you introduce yourself to my kids, you introduce yourself as Maui.
