Devin White wishes his teammate a happy birthday on Instagram

Bucs linebacker Devin White went on Instagram today to wish his fellow teammate a happy birthday.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are loaded with talent on both sides of the ball heading into the 2020 season. Tom Brady, along with Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Rob Gronkowski, will be tasked with leading the charge on offense, while linebacker Devin White has told Brady he’ll hold things down on defense.

White was the Buccaneers’ first-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft, and proved towards the end of his rookie year that he’s a star in the making and a franchise cornerstone for this D heading into the future. Along with White, the Bucs also have a talented young cornerback they picked up in the same 2019 draft in Sean Murphy-Bunting.

Today, White took to Instagram to wish his brother and teammate a happy birthday.

Take a look.

Bucs CB Sean Murphy-Bunting ‘will never be defeated’

Buccaneers cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting offered some inspirational words on Instagram recently in light of current events.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense will look to make a big step forward this season in Year 2 under Todd Bowles. The Bucs used their second-round pick in April’s draft on versatile safety Antoine Winfield Jr. out of Minnesota, one year after they took another talented defender in round two in cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting.

SMB had a strong rookie campaign and will be looked upon to be one of the leaders of this young Bucs defense in 2020. But as Murphy-Bunting prepares himself for the upcoming season, he’s also taken time recently to acknowledge the growing social conflict in our country following the death of George Floyd.

The Bucs cornerback took to Instagram the other day to offer a little inspiration and hope to his followers. Take a look.

CB Sean Murphy-Bunting is changing his jersey number

Buccaneers cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting is switching numbers. See which one SMB will wear now.

It’s been an offseason of changes for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, from getting a new quarterback in Tom Brady to (thankfully) getting new uniforms that are a callback to the team’s glory days. We’ve also seen wide receiver Chris Godwin change his jersey number from 12 to 14 so that TB12 could still be… well, you know.

With all the changes, why not throw one more into the mix? Cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting, who was selected in the second round of the 2019 NFL draft, will be switching from 26 to 23, which was worn by Deone Bucannon last year when Murphy-Bunting was a rookie. Bucannon was cut from the team last October.

I’ll admit, SMB23 does have a nice ring to it. And again, how great are the uniforms?
