Southeastern cornerback Mark Myers is one step closer to becoming the first NFL player ever produced by his college.
Myers was one of nearly 30 players, mostly undrafted rookies, who participated in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' rookie mini-camp this weekend on tryout contracts. At the conclusion of the camp, the Buccaneers signed a pair of those tryout prospects to their 90-man offseason roster, both from decidedly small football programs: Myers and University of Indianapolis guard Ruben Holcomb. They will stay in Tampa for the remainder of the team's offseason workout program and presumably join the team for training camp later in the summer.
