Desmond Watson’s goal is to make people forget about his size and view him for his unique talent. It’s hard to ignore the heaviest player in NFL history.

The heaviest player in NFL history made his debut with the Buccaneers this weekend at rookie minicamp and addressed his weight. The 6-foot-6 Watson weighed in at 464 pounds at Florida’s pro day before going undrafted and signing with the Buccaneers. He is said to have dropped 27 pounds since then — still setting the record.

Everyone in Gainesville knows to keep an eye on Big Des when he's on the field, but the greater football community is just getting acquainted with former Florida defensive lineman and real-life behemoth Desmond Watson.
