Photo by Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire via But it’s just Day 1 Many inside and outside the Buccaneers remember when cornerback Carlton Davis III was was simply outmatched on the field against Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill during their regular season game in 2020. But Davis III later on helped shutdown Hill during their Super Bowl matchup. Now with the Miami Dolphins, Hill and his team were at the Buccaneers training facility for the start of joint practices.

Buccaneers lose Russell Gage at joint practice
Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports The Bucs lose another receiver to injury during joint practice with Miami Dolphins The hits keep coming for the Buccaneers’ wide receiver group.

Chris Godwin looking good early on
Photo by Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire via Just under nine months removed from tearing his ACL, Chris Godwin is on track for an early return There’s been tons of speculation as to when Buccaneers’ wide receiver Chris Godwin would return having torn his ACL in December of 2021. In an age of the NFL where a torn ACL doesn’t mean what it used to, it’s still better to view it as a twelve month injury. Many players can return before that year is up, but they aren’t always truly 100%. In Godwin’s case, he appears to be inching closer and closer to that...

Fast forward to 2022 and Kyle Trask is possibly the most important player on the team when coming into these preseason matchups. In college,...

Rookie Rachaad White beginning to shine
Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports Head coach Todd Bowles is excited about the potential in the Buccaneers’ new running back When the Buccaneers looked for an answer to the vacated spot left by Ronald Jones, they went to Arizona State to find a versatile, elusive back with a high ceiling and could develop into an any down back.
