Cam Jordan reveals how the Saints plan to disrupt 4-time Pro Bowl Rams QB Matthew Stafford’s rhythm – and why this Week 9 matchup could define New Orleans’ entire season.

Tampa Bay, Florida – January, 2026Ronde Barber has always been more than just a player for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Over his 16-season career, Barber became the heart and soul of the franchise, leading Tampa Bay's defense with unmatched toughness, leadership, and a deep commitment to his community. As a Hall of Famer, 5-time Pro Bowler, and key figure in the Bucs' Super Bowl XXXVII victory, Barber has built a legacy on and off the field. However, a charity connected to his foundation, Ronde Barber Charities, faced legal action after it was discovered that donations intended for at-risk youth, children’s education programs, and support for underprivileged families in the Tampa Bay area were misappropriated. Barber immediately took legal action to defend the vulnerable families who trusted his integrity and commitment to helping those in need. Auditors found that less than 40 percent of the funds raised actually reached the children, far below the promised 80 percent. The rest was buried behind inflated salaries for executives, excessive operational fees, and personal luxuries unrelated to any charitable mission. Barber was deeply disturbed that vulnerable children in his hometown had been betrayed. “I built my career around protecting others, whether on the field or in my community,” Barber stated. “When someone exploits the trust of those in need, I’ll fight to make it right.” He filed a lawsuit for misappropriation of charitable funds, determined to restore the money and faith of the community he spent so much of his life uplifting. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers stood by Barber throughout the process, offering support, helping gather evidence, and ensuring that the truth was exposed in the courtroom. The organization made it clear that their legends, in every form, will never fight alone. The court ruling was a resounding victory for Barber. The charity was ordered to pay $2.1 million in restitution, its executives were banned from nonprofit management for at least ten years, and all remaining funds were directed back to children’s programs and at-risk youth in the Tampa Bay area immediately. Barber refused to accept a single dollar for himself. Every cent recovered will go directly to supporting children’s education, youth mentorship programs, and the community-driven initiatives Barber had championed throughout his Hall of Fame career. With a Super Bowl ring, 5 Pro Bowls, 3 First-Team All-Pro selections, 47 interceptions (franchise leader), and an NFL record for sacks by a cornerback (28), Barber has already cemented his place as one of the greatest defensive backs in NFL history. Now, his greatest legacy might be his fight to protect the most vulnerable in his community. Barber’s message to the people of Tampa Bay was loud and clear: “I played for touchdowns, big plays, and championships, but I’ve always served a greater purpose. If someone steals from our kids, they answer to me — and they answer to this community.” His words remind us that his loyalty goes deeper than his 92-yard pick-six that sealed Super Bowl XXXVII. Tampa Bay celebrates more than a courtroom victory tonight — they celebrate a protector who continues to fight for the next generation, long after stepping off the field. Ronde Barber remains the heart and shield of Tampa Bay — forever a Buccaneer, forever family.
