Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Antoine Winfield Jr. accumulated 94 tackles in total, along with three sacks, six defended passes, two forced fumbles, an interception and a fumble recovery during his stellar debut season.
For the Buccaneers, who ended with a record 11-5 in the regular season, it ended with a Super Bowl LV championship. And to commemorate the 31-9 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, Winfield Jr. had a giant Lombardi Trophy tattoo on his forearm.

Winfield posted the photo of her tattoo on her Instagram Story on Monday. The tattoo extended from elbow to wrist. The upper part of the trophy was on its member, while the lower part “LV” went down to his wrist. The tattoo included the Buccaneers logo and two praying hands.
The tattoo elicited a response from quarterback Tom Brady, who commented on the photo of Winfield Jr.’s tattoo.

“Be sure to leave some space, @antoinewinfieldjr,” said Brady, referring that the Buccaneers are chasing another Super Bowl title in 2021.
Winfield Jr. suffered an injury in the Super Bowl LV, but, at the end of the game, the rookie sensation laughed last with the Chiefs wide receiver, Tyreek Hill. Winfield Jr. was fined more than $ 7,800 for insulting Hill with his “peace sign”.

Winfield Jr. interrupted a pass on a fourth down play during the game and launched the “two” symbol that Hill usually blinks when passing through defenders and entering the end zone for a touchdown.
Winfield told reporters that he “needed” to give Hill some kind of provocation.
“It’s something I had to do,” he said, through the New York Post. “When we played earlier, he somersaulted in my face and gave me the sign of peace. So it was only fair that I give him back the sign of peace. It was incredible to do that.
