TAMPA — The great expectations for Bucs defensive end Noah Spence started last month, when Gerald McCoy said he has a "breakout year" ahead in his second NFL season. Then teammate Robert Ayers said Wednesday that Spence could be "a 15-plus sack guy," an impressive leap from his 61/2-sack rookie year.
Spence isn't making any specific goals for 2017, but he's not shying away from the confidence his teammates have in what he's capable of doing.
"We all have expectations for each other. We all have expectations for ourselves. It's all on what you do on the field, not what you say you're going to do.
