Watson played football for the Gators at 6-foot-5, 464 pounds, and he has worked hard to get down to around 450 pounds. Despite the progress Watson has made, he opened up training camp on the non-football injury list due to his weight.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie Desmond Watson weighs too much. The Bucs made that more or less an official stance this week, when they placed the undrafted free agent on the non-football illness list. Watson weighed 464 pounds at Florida, and various reports this offseason have listed him at either 437 pounds or 449 pounds.
