Linebacker – Kwon Alexander

Return of the LitiRilla is upon us Buc fans. After spending the past five weeks away from the game with a pulled hamstring, Kwon Alexander looks to be in form to finally return.

The wait has been long and hard, but the Bucs finally get the heart and soul back on their defense. The signal caller and sideline to sideline player that Alexander is has been much missed throughout the past few weeks, and it is evident on how much he has been missed.

No shots against rookie Kendell Beckwith or veteran Lavonte David, but Alexander’s play has brought life to a flat defense since he entered the league.

With Alexander back in the fold, it gives the Bucs what is arguably the best linebacking core in the entire NFL.

Yes you read that correctly.

If Alexander is able to play up to full-speed, it will be a long day for the opposing quarterback.
