Get to Know Bucs Rookie LB Chapelle Russell

Meet one of Tampa Bay's sixth-round picks from the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a pair of sixth-round picks in the 2020 NFL Draft, and they used one of them to bolster their depth at linebacker, get help on special teams, and also add plenty of athleticism, upside and passion for the game of football.

They found all of that in Temple's Chapelle Russell, a versatile and athletic linebacker prospect who would have heard his name called much earlier in this year's draft if not for unfortunate injuries sustained during his collegiate career.

At full strength, Russell brings an unrivaled passion for the game, something the Bucs value highly when it comes to their draft picks.
