For any rookie, adjusting to the NFL has to be loads easier when there are veterans around to help you along the way. Buccaneers right tackle Tristan Wirfs, drafted 13th overall in this year’s draft, is finding that out.
With COVID-19 affecting the offseason, Wirfs didn’t get a rookie mini camp or OTAs to ease his way into life as a pro. He isn’t even getting preseason exhibitions to dip his toes in the water. Instead, he’s having to jump right into the regular season with nothing but training camp to prepare him. Well, nothing but training camp and his fellow offensive linemen, that is.
