The Buccaneers could be expecting the tight end who unexpectedly slid to No. 19 in the 2017 draft to make a significant jump in 2018.
Tight end O.J. Howard caught the attention of his head coach during the offseason program Authentic Jaire Alexander Jersey , finishing up spring practice with a flourish.
“You saw two good examples of O.J. right there at the end,” coach Dirk Koetter said Wednesday at the conclusion of practice, via Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. “He made that great catch in the end zone [Tuesday]. He made that beautiful catch in the seam, then a few plays later, we threw the screen to him. I mean O.J.’s incredible athleticism just jumps out to you.”
Howard had 26 catches for 432 yards and six touchdowns in 2017. He shares time with tight bend Cameron Brate Youth Hayden Hurst Jersey , who signed a long-term deal earlier in the offseason.
“I think with him knowing more what to expect with the 16-game schedule and six-week training camp, it’s easy to see, I don’t think anybody who watched those plays wouldn’t see why that guy was a first-round draft pick last year,” Koetter said.
The Tampa Bay offense has plenty of weapons in the passing game, with the two tight ends accompanied by receivers Mike Evans and DeSean Jackson. If they can put it all together Rigoberto Sanchez Jersey , the Bucs may finally get back to the playoffs, for the time time since 2007. Their last postseason win came in Super Bowl XXXVIII.
Arizona coach Steve Wilks confirmed what the team’s statement said Monday about Christian Kirk‘s arrest: The Cardinals knew about the receiver’s arrest, conducted their own investigation and felt comfortable enough with what they found to draft Kirk in the second round.
“Well, I鈥檓 not going to go indulge in what he told us, but I will say this Youth Dante Pettis Jersey , we knew about it,” Wilks said Tuesday, via Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. “We did our own independent research on it, and we felt very good about the information that we received and that鈥檚 why we moved forward in really drafting him. As I stated before, we want to bring in great character guys Authentic Paul Worrilow Jersey , and I think Christian is one of those guys. I think the situation is going to resolve itself here in a couple of months. And with it still being an on-going legal issue, I鈥檓 not going to go into it any further than that.鈥?/p>
Kirk was arrested in February, charged with damaging property and disorderly conduct-disruptive behavior for throwing rocks at cars outside the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
