According to this, the encounter with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers took place at BWI.

And according to this (15th paragraph), NFL teams are routinely screened at hotels or stadiums before they leave for the airport.

Either of those could explain TSA involvement.
I didn't read anything about the BWI incident with the Bucs in the local papers that suggested the TSA did anything other than let the druggies into the secure area. I suspect they don't need the TSA's help searching luggage and frisking people.

Based on the way my Giants played on Sunday, they should have raided the Giants rather than the 49ers.
