Thank you for visiting JoshBidwell.com.  So far, my NFL career has been an amazing experience for me and my family.  The 2005 season was my best ever and will forever be one of the most memorable years of my life.  I was voted into my first Pro Bowl, which happened in the very same month that the first of my two boys was born. That was a dream year for me in many different aspects!

This past 2008 season went very well.  I had a 44.5 yard average with a 37.6 yard net average and 27 inside the 20 all of which are near the tops in team history.  Over the course of my five seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, I have been able to establish the top four gross punting averages for a season in team history, four of the top five net punting averages, and three of the top four punting yard seasons in team history.  I have the team record for career punting average and have also been able to add to my record for career punts downed inside the 20 yard line.  It is an honor to play for the Buccaneers and I consider myself very blessed to have been able to establish myself as one of the best players at my position in team history.

Another exciting event in my life is the release of my first book, When It’s Fourth and Long, on September 1st, 2007 released by Harvest House Publishers.  This book is an autobiography that takes the reader through the trials, fears and lessons that I learned while fighting cancer as a 23 year old kid. Within the book are stories of the people that helped me along the way and also gives the reader a glimpse of what life has been like for me in the NFL for these past several season.  I know that this book will enlighten, encourage and entertain all who read it.  If you would like to get a copy it can be purchased on any major book store’s internet site including Amazon.com, Borders.com and Barnesandnoble.com.
