Interestingly enough, 1st round draft pick LB Devin White will wear number 41 rather than 40 like he did at LSU. This is very significant since Mike Alstott wore number 40 as well, and it has been speculated that Tampa Bay will retire his number sooner or later. This decision falls in line with that assumption.
