Bill Capece will unfortunately be remembered for John McKay's famous "Capece is Kaput" quote in Dec 1983 rather than for the fact that he won a bunch of games earlier in his NFL career for the Bucs. .John Carney had three separate stints with the Buccaneers in each year from 1987 to 1989 thanks to the strike and two different injuries sustained by Donald Igwebuike. He wore the No.4 shirt on his first two tours of duty but switched to No.3 for his one-game sojourn in 1989. A long NFL career ensued after leaving Tampa however. Mark Royals came from nowhere to win the punting job from Chris Mohr in 1989 and spent over a decade in the NFL, five years of which were in Tampa. Eddie Murray took over from Ken Willis as the Bucs' kicker in 1992 and played half a season as part of a long and distinguished pro career. Edell Shepherd is known by Claymore fans for his time in NFL Europe and his one game in that shirt came in the 2003 season finale in Tennessee when the roster was bare. He the switched to the No.86 jersey before the 2004 season . Matt Bryant won the kicking job over Todd France in training camp 2005 and became one of the best kickers in Buc history, setting a franchise record with his unforgettable 62-yarder to win beat the Eagles in 2006. Then came Jameis Winston, the proverbial franchise quarterback who was more hot and cold than any other player in the NFL and ultimately proved to be another failed dawn as a potential building block. Ryan Succop took over as kicker for 2020 and also the No.3 jersey and provided some much needed stability to the position. BEST EVER TO WEAR No.3 FOR THE BUCS - JAMEIS WINSTON
