If defensive tackle Gerald McCoy harbored any hard feelings toward his rather unceremonious exit following nine seasons with the Bucs, he didn’t show it in an Instagram video posted two days after his release.
McCoy, released as expected on Monday after it became apparent he wouldn’t be retained by new coach Bruce Arians, channeled his Superhero persona while thanking fans and vowing he “will retire as a Buc” during the 2-minute long video.

McCoy, a Batman fan who even owns a black Rolls Royce with the familiar emblem on the hood, introduced the video with the theme from the 1989 Batman film playing and a close-up of the logo on his chest.
