Tampa Bay’s Vita Vea has stamped an indelible mark on the NFL’s record books: With a 1-yard reception Sunday late in the first half of the Buccaneers’ 35-22 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, Vea, who weighs in at 347 pounds, unofficially became the heaviest player in NFL history to score an offensive touchdown.
Vea — full name Tevita Tuliu02bbakiu02bbono Tuipulotu Mosese Vau02bbhae Fehoko Faletau Vea — snared the Jameis Winston pass on a short rollout to put the Buccaneers up 19-10 going into the half.
Yeah. YOU try covering that dude.
