Joe Tryon-Shoyinka normally plants quarterbacks in the turf, and bounced his ceremonial first pitch earlier this year.

The below video, released by the Buccaneers yesterday, has some great insights as well as a few good laughs with the 6-5, 259-pound edge rusher.

The former first-round draft pick said he had not thrown his two seam fastball since 2011, may have pulled back just a little bit on his throw as it bounced about 15 feet in front of home plate. However, on the hop, it found the catchers mitt.

A third-year veteran player with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, opted-out the pandemic shortened 2020 season  at Washington.  He, instead, chose to prep for the 2021 NFL draft where he was taken with the 32nd overall pick by the Buccaneers.

In 2019 he led to Husky’s with nine sacks and 12 1/2 tackles for loss. Before the 2020 season he was named to several All-American teams before opting out.

According to the Pewter Report, this is a very important season for the former Husky.
