Nicely done Tampa. Nicely done. Buccanneers coach Greg Schiano added:

“Leading up to the draft, I couldn’t help but think that this should’ve been Eric’s draft class,” said coach Schiano. “This small gesture is the least we could do to recognize his character, spirit, and perseverance. The way Eric lives his life epitomizes what we are looking for in Buccaneer Men.”
