Justin Watson picks rookie camp over Penn graduation ceremony

TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Justin Watson won't be walking across the stage in a cap and gown at his college graduation Sunday morning. Instead, the Bucs' 2018 fifth-round draft pick will be more than 1,000 miles away in Tampa, Florida, getting ready for the final day of rookie minicamp.

But it's not just any graduation ceremony that he'll miss -- it's his graduation from University of Pennsylvania's renowned Wharton School. With an admission rate below 7 percent and an average SAT score of 1499, it is largely considered one of the top undergraduate business schools in the country.
