description

With the Buccaneers needing a win to win the division and clinch a spot in the postseason, safety Antoine Winfield Jr. delivered one of the biggest plays of the season. An opposing Carolina receiver had broken free and was sprinting towards the goal line, but as he dove to get the ball across for the score, Winfield lunged at him full speed, laying it all on the line to make a big hit that knocked the ball free before it crossed the goal line. A teammate recovered it in the end zone to complete the crucial turnover. On the day, Winfield tallied five tackles, one sack, and this monstrous forced fumble, as Tampa Bay beat the Panthers, 9-0, on Jan. 7, 2024.
