The word all time Buccaneer gets thrown around quite a bit but Lavonte David is definitely in the conversation.
The list of notable players who started and finished their careers with the Buccaneers is short:
- Lee Roy Selmon
- Derrick Brooks
- Ronde Barber
- Mike Alstott
Tuesday, David joined that elite group. He had chances to go elsewhere but chose to play ONLY for the Buccaneers.
He exemplified what it meant to be a professional on and off the field. His accomplishments rank right up there with hall of farmers and he will obviously be enshrined into the Bucs Ring of Honor even if he doesn’t make it into Canton.
This offseason has been a gut punch to Buccaneer fans who’ve watched their all time WR leave via FA and now one of their favorite players retire.
To be fair, David wasn’t the player he once was but regardless, it still stings and there’s a huge leadership void that needs to be filled. Who steps up?
