TAMPA — It was a molten morning, surface of Mercury, on the football field at Skyway Park, near Tampa International Airport. Bucs Hall of Fame defensive tackle Warren Sapp was working with some Bucs defensive linemen. HBO Hard Knocks crews followed them. Training camp was a week away. Sapp pointed to Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston, drenched in sweat, throwing spirals to assorted teammates.
"There's your badass, right out there," Sapp said.
