The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are doing everything they can to avoid missteps — or at least minimize mistakes — with Desmond Watson before the upcoming season even begins. The team made a key decision about his health.

Desmond Watson’s quest to make the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will get a late start. Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles said the heaviest player in NFL history is day to day after starting camp on non-football injury list due to his weight.

Watson played football for the Gators at 6-foot-5, 464 pounds, and he has worked hard to get down to around 450 pounds. Despite the progress Watson has made, he opened up training camp on the non-football injury list due to his weight.
