Bucs' Seferian-Jenkins vows to stay off Twitter until playoff win
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins has been making a lot of noise this offseason.
After being ejected from OTA practice for not knowing the playbook and getting into subsequent Twitter altercations with Bucs fans, the third-year pro is swearing off the social media platform until he can help deliver Tampa Bay their first playoff win since 2002.
Really lived a blessed life right only right that I give back. I'm done tweeting till the playoffs w. We in there

Seferian-Jenkins has already apologized for his immature behavior, telling Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times, "It's a learning process. I'm ready today and excited to get back to work and get this behind me...I won't let it happen again."
The extremely athletic prospect has failed to live up to expectations since being drafted in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft. Seferian-Jenkins has managed to flash potential, with 42 catches and six touchdowns in only 16 games, but his inability to stay healthy has has hindered his development.
