Give Tampa Bay TE Jordan Leggett for trying to keep No. 87

Tampa Bay tight end Jordan Leggett had some fun negotiating with Rob Gronkowski for No. 87.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Jordan Leggett wore No. 87 … until Tuesday.

The TE who played college ball at Clemson and has all of 14 catches in 2018 as a New York Jet to speak for his NFL career was quick to try and make a deal with Rob Gronkowski for No. 87.

Leggett tweeted, tongue firmly in cheek:

Leggett was quick to greet his fellow tight end and also showed he has a grasp on reality.

The Bucs took the mystery out of the numbers game … instantly. They assigned Leggett No. 81 while giving Gronkowski the No. 87 he wore while starring for the Patriots.
