Super Bowl LV is nearly upon us! On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs will take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers — who are unfamiliarly led by the legendary Tom Brady behind center — to decide who wears the 2020-21 crown for the National Football League.
This season’s Super Bowl will be played in Tampa, Florida, marking the 17th time the premier game has taken place in the Sunshine State, representing almost a third of the total 55 games played. 16 different UF alumni played in a total of 17 Super Bowls in the domain of Florida Man. Unfortunately, only five of them tasted the sweetness of the ultimate victory.
Here are the former Florida Gators who played for gridiron immortality in their alma mater’s state. Team names in bold denote that the former Gator played on the winning squad.
