The Buccaneers are doing a good job of keeping the band together.
Shortly after the free agent negotiation window opened on Monday, rusher Shaq Barrett texted Josina Anderson with news that should make Bucs fans very happy. Barrett, who signed with the team in 2019 and played under the franchise brand in 2020, says he is coming back.
“I’m returning to Tampa, ”wrote Barrett.
There is no word on the terms of the deal, which comes after the team rehired linebacker Lavonte David and used the franchise brand on wide receiver Chris Godwin. An extension for quarterback Tom Brady helped free up space for coverage and the team is ready to bring back the core of the Super Bowl LV champions for another race.
