Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager took to the podium at the 2020 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis today, and while on the topic of free agent quarterback Jameis Winston, he spoke about the Buccaneers’ defense.

“There are some quality guys, and quality throughout the draft at all levels,” Licht said about the defensive players in the upcoming NFL draft. “I thought we did a fantastic job with Jamel Dean and Sean Murphy-Bunting coming from a small school and really playing lights out the second half of the season.”

“Carlton [Davis] made huge advancements along with Sean [Murphy-Bunting] and Jamel [Dean], just three great guys. They bought into the program, they want to go out and compete every week. I just couldn’t be more happier with those guys.”
