1. Defending jump balls.
The defense didn’t intercept a pass during team drills on Tuesday, but redeemed themselves on Wednesday with a handful of picks, including one from Danny Lansanah that was returned for a touchdown. If there was an area the defense struggled, though, it was defending jump balls; Jameis Winston connected with Mike Evans and Vincent Jackson for touchdowns on jump balls during 11-on-11 drills. Sure, it’s a tall task to defend a jump ball intended for Evans or Jackson, but it will be interesting to see what the Bucs’ corner and safeties learned from yesterday’s film and what they will do today to improve their performance in that area.
