Bucs’ Gio Bernard bristles at questions about botched fake punt
Buccaneers running back Giovani Bernard botched a fake punt in his team’s loss to the Bengals on Sunday, failing to handle the direct snap from center on a designed play.
Bernard presumably asked why reporters wanted to speak with him despite seldom seeking his comments this season. One reporter can be heard asking, “What have you done for us to talk to you about all year?” Eventually, Bernard agreed to take questions but only repeated the same response over and over again when asked about his fumble on the fake punt attempt. It appeared that he was unaware it was a fake. When reporters asked if he knew it was fake or whether the team had practiced the play, he repeatedly said, “It was all me.”
Bucs coach Todd Bowles said the team had practiced the play and Bernard was aware it was a fake punt.
