Buccaneers Sign NFL's Heaviest and Lightest Players, Weighing 310 Pounds Apart

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have made NFL history by adding both the heaviest and lightest players ever seen in the league to their roster. Desmond Watson, an undrafted free agent defensive tackle from Florida, weighs in at 464 pounds, making him the heaviest player in NFL history, and he impressed scouts with his strength and surprising agility for his size. On the other end of the spectrum, the Buccaneers drafted wide receiver Tez Johnson from Oregon in the seventh round, who, at 154 pounds, is likely the lightest player to ever play in the NFL. Both players have unique challenges to overcome due to their extreme sizes, but they also bring distinct skill sets that could benefit the team if they make the final roster. Their signings highlight the diversity of athletic profiles in football and underscore the Buccaneers' willingness to take risks on players who defy traditional size expectations. The next step for both will be to secure a spot on the team and prove their value on the field.
