TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting read the play perfectly -- the receiver he was manning motioned down and back out, Murphy-Bunting's cue that a slant route was coming -- and he jumped the route to intercept it, keeping the offense out of field goal range in the end-of-game, two-minute drill.
“I almost started running,” Murphy-Bunting said, laughing. “I heard guys [yell], ‘Get down, get down!’ So I had to slide. And then I saw a lineman next to me too, so I could have really gotten it bad. Like coach said, I could have broke my sternum.
