Giovani Bernard taking on a rookie mindset with Tampa Bay in 2021

Posted May 27, 2021
"I consider myself, in a way, a rookie," said Giovani Bernard. "Coming into Tampa, obviously not knowing many people on the team, getting accustomed to a new football team. I’m gonna consider myself a rookie because, in a way, I am. Just very new, but yet at the end of the day, it’s still football, so the more repetitions I can get, I’m all for it." (Bucs Nation)
