NEW ORLEANS, La. -- Call it sheer coincidence or an odd twist of fate. When his Tampa Bay Buccaneers play at the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, things will officially come full circle for Bucs rookie linebacker Kendell Beckwith.
Beckwith and his two brothers, Wendell and Justin, got to attend one NFL game growing up -- and it was between the Bucs and Saints. It was Dec. 4, 2005, two days after Kendell's 11th birthday. The game was played at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, when the Saints were displaced by Hurricane Katrina.
