Golden Tate is back in uniform, but it’s not a football jersey. The longtime Lions wide receiver, who has not played in the NFL since 2020, is now playing some minor league baseball.
Tate, now 33, signed a contract with the Port Angeles Lefties of the West Coast League. In a joint statement from the league via social media, Tate had this to say about his budding baseball journey,
“I am extremely thankful to the West Coast League and the Port Angeles Lefties for allowing me to join their league As some might know, I was drafted twice in baseball. As a child, my first love was baseball, so I’m excited about the opportunity to compete against some of the best young players in the league.”
