After a slow start to the 2017 season, Bucs’ running back Peyton Barber came on strong, finishing the last five games of the season with 335 rushing yards on 78 carries - good for a 4.29 average - and one touchdown.
It wasn’t enough to keep Tampa Bay from drafting Ronald Jones out of USC in the second round, but as we all know, competition is the best motivator in the NFL.
Barber knows this, which is why he decided to shed some weight in the offseason in hopes to elevate his game.
