Peyton Barber leading the way at running back

Just about everyone expects rookie Ronald Jones to be the lead back for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at some point. Peyton Barber is out to make sure the point when it happens is further away than most predict.

It’s pre-season Week 1, so it’s important we don’t get too riled up about anything good or bad. But, I’ve been a fan of Barber since he was in Auburn and was incredibly excited when he landed in Tampa Bay.

Granted, I wasn’t quite sure what he’d turn in to, just like everyone else.

In 2016 he was an undrafted free-agent trying to make enough money to give his family a better life.
