BY IRA KAUFMAN
In honor of a half-century of Buccaneer football, I’m counting down the Top 50 players in franchise history, based solely on their accomplishments with the franchise. This week, we continue at No. 45.
No. 50 – Mark Cotney
No. 49 – Mike Washington
No. 48 – Richard “Batman” Wood
No. 47 – Aqib Talib
No. 46 – Ricky Reynolds
45. Keyshawn Johnson
The No. 1 overall pick in the 1996 Draft by the Jets, Johnson was one of the top offensive threats during Tampa Bay’s 2002 championship season. He ranks seventh on the Buc career list in receptions and No. 8 in receiving yards. Johnson was traded to the Bucs in 2000 for a pair of first-round draft choices. He caught 106 passes in 2001, which is still a franchise single-season record. In the 2002 postseason, Johnson caught 14 passes for 194 yards, including a 9-yard TD reception late in the opening half at Philadelphia in the NFC championship game. [read more]
