Bucs switch jerseys for final practice, hilarity ensues

TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers held their final regular season practice Friday and several players decided to have a little fun by swapping jerseys beforehand. Wide receivers wearing offensive linemen's numbers and defensive linemen squeezing into cornerbacks' jerseys created quite the spectacle, and fortunately, no aid from equipment staffers was needed.

Six-foot-four, 300-pound Gerald McCoy swapped jerseys with Brent Grimes, who, at 5 foot 10 and weighs 185 pounds, looked pretty silly standing around the defensive line bags. Robert Ayers, who is 6 foot 3, 275 pounds, swapped jerseys with 5 foot 10, 187-pound Alterraun Verner and even did a TV interview wearing Verner's jersey.
