The Tampa Bay Buccaneers got what they wanted in the first round of April’s NFL draft, which was an offensive tackle in Iowa’s Tristan Wirfs capable of providing support up front for new investment Tom Brady.
Round two afforded the Bucs the opportunity to take one of the draft’s best young safeties, which they did when they selected Minnesota’s Antoine Winfield Jr. with the 45th pick. Winfield, the son of former NFL Pro Bowl cornerback Antoine Winfield Sr., is thrilled to be coming to Tampa along with his Golden Gopher teammate, wide receiver Tyler Johnson.
But before he comes to the Sunshine State, the new Bucs safety was busy this weekend taking part in protests in Minneapolis stemming from the death of George Floyd last week at the hands of a white Minneapolis police officer.
Winfield took to his Instagram story to share images from today’s march through the city. Take a look.
