Bucaneers lose final defensive star of 2002 superbowl team to retirement

Ronde Barber has decided to hang up the cleats. The 16 year veteran decided there wasn't a role on this years team and didn't want to play elsewhere. He calls it a career with 47 ints, 16 forced fumbles, 28 sacks, and 8 TD's. He is the only player in NFL history to have over 40 INT's and 25 sacks in his career. He was a five time Probowler and three time All-Pro.

Barber has played corner on the outside, the inside and he also played safety for this defense. He was apart of the 2002 Tampa Bay Bucs defense, one of the best in the history of the NFL, that won the Superbowl. Barber returned a Donavon McNabb interception 92 yards for a touchdown to solidify their spot in the Superbowl.

Ronde Barber is a sure Hall of Famer.
