— Bucs GM Jason Licht.

When Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht spoke the highlighted words above at the combine before the TV klieglights of NFL Network, BSPN, FOX Sports, CBS, NFL Network, Peacock and SiriusXM NFL Radio, NFL broadcast partners all, it really got the attention of Bucs fourth-year running back Ke’Shawn Vaughn back in Florida.
