The Tampa Bay Buccaneers formed their first 53-man roster for the 2024 regular season roster with a series of moves on Tuesday afternoon, and it currently tilts a bit towards the defensive side. Three of 53 spots necessarily go to the specialist trio of punter-kicker-snapper, leaving 50 spots to be divvied up between the positions on offense and defense. The Buccaneers current roster devotes 27 of those spots to defensive players, including 11 defensive backs.
The Buccaneers were able to keep an extra defensive back as well as six outside linebackers because they chose to keep just two quarterbacks on the active roster and will almost certainly carry a third on the practice squad. Last year, the team started the season the same way before eventually promoting John Wolford to the 53-man roster and carry three quarterbacks. The Bucs also went one lighter than usual at running back, carrying three and placing Chase Edmonds on season-ending injured reserve. For more info go to
