Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Vernon Hargreaves has a special birthday present he's bringing home to his mother, Jackie -- a game ball from his interception against the Cincinnati Bengals on Friday night.
Hargreaves picked off Andy Dalton at the goal line for a touchdown-saving interception in the first quarter. And he did it doing exactly what head coach Dirk Koetter told him to focus on this offseason: by being aggressive."I just took a chance," said Hargreaves, Vincent Jackson Jerseysthe 11th overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft. "There wasn’t a lot of space behind him, so I took a chance. I was being aggressive, and I happened to make the play.”
"They came out, they had tight splits, Doug Martin JerseysI figured it may be something outside," Hargreaves said. "I just took a chance and it happened to work out for me."
Hargreaves also had a key pass breakup on third down that forced the Bengals to settle for a field goal, turning in one of the finest defensive performances of any Bucs player in their preseason opener.
