On Tuesday, June 3, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will continue to advocate for the fight against childhood cancer through the team's annual "Cut and Color Funds the Cure," benefiting the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation (NPCF). Buccaneers' players, legends and staff members, including COO Brian Ford, General Manager Jason Licht and Head Coach Todd Bowles, are scheduled to have their heads or facial hair shaved or colored red. This year's iteration will feature several Bucs' legends in attendance including Mike Alstott, Richard "Batman" Wood, Martin Gramatica, and Dexter Jackson, as well as current Buccaneers' players.
Now in its 11th campaign, the team has raised $750,000 for NPCF. To donate, fans can click here.
