Passing Game Coordinator and Inside Linebackers Coach Larry Foote talked about some of the struggles of the defense when speaking with the media on Monday - and one of the recurring themes of the day was Antoine Winfield Jr.'s struggles this season, especially with his uptick in missed tackles.
While the defense as a whole has been in the bottom two in almost every major metric over their last six games, Winfield's struggles stand out because of the season he just had as well as the contract he just received. Now, with the return of Mike Edwards and Jamel Dean, there's reason to believe that we're about to see more of the 2023 Winfield instead of what has transpired so far this season.
With a little extra help in the secondary, Todd Bowles is about to get his biggest chess piece back for the Bucs' final, pivotal stretch
