Rounding out this list is one of the most physically talented receivers in Buccaneer history. Keyshawn Johnson left his mark on the team and has one thing that the other players do not; a Super Bowl Ring.

Keyshawn Johnson edged his way into the fifth spot on this list due to the role that he had in helping the Buccaneers win their only Super Bowl to date. While that team was mostly based around the defense and a consistent run game, Johnson was the best offensive player on that team.

During this time, the Buccaneers were still running through their duo of Mike Alstott and Michael Pittman, but Keyshawn Johnson was the king in the air and posted great numbers for a receiver in the playoffs given the time.

During the 2002 NFL Playoffs, Johnson had 20 catches for 263 yards and forced opposing teams to respect the pass, even though the real danger was on the ground.

Keyshawn Johnson had a large personality and did not last long with the Buccaneers after the Super Bowl, but he was brought in to help Tampa Bay get over the hump and win and that he did.

Despite his short time on the team, Johnson still ranks seventh all-time for the team in receiving yards, but the legacy that he holds as a Super Bowl winner for the Bucs makes him a part of this select group.
