Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2022 Season Preview
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers kick off after a turbulent offseason with surprise retirements, comebacks, a coaching change, and big transactions.
Bucs quarterback Tom Brady retired in February and then unretired in March. Shortly after, Bucs head coach Bruce Arians stepped down, and defensive coordinator Todd Bowles took over the team.
Despite Brady’s return, the Bucs lost his longtime teammate and tight end Rob Gronkowski to retirement — for now. The Bucs also got a surprise retirement with Pro Bowl guard Ali Marpet, which shortly before a host of offseason personnel moves.
While the Bucs lost key starters such as guard Alex Cappa and safety Jordan Whitehead, the Bucs brought in notable players such as guard Shaq Mason, tight end Kyle Rudolph, and wide receiver Julio Jones. This Bucs team has a significantly different luck from the squad that won the Super Bowl in the 2020 season and returned all 22 starters for 2021 but fell short.
Either way, the goal remains the same in Tampa Bay as Brady chases his eighth Super Bowl ring.
Offensive Outlook
Brady has plenty of familiar faces on offense to work with such as running back Leonard Fournette and wide receiver Mike Evans.
Fellow star receiver Chris Godwin is expected to play again soon, coming off of an ACL tear in 2021. The Bucs also added free agents Russell Gage and Jones to bolster the passing attack.
The Bucs’ offensive line remains the big question mark. Pro Bowl center Ryan Jensen injured his knee, which led to second-year offensive lineman Robert Hainsey to take over. Tampa Bay has three new — and mostly young — linemen in the interior line, which could be problematic with a 45-year-old quarterback.
Defensive Outlook
With most key players back, the Bucs expect to look as tough as ever on defense.
Vita Vea anchors a tough defensive line with Will Gholston and Akiem Hicks. Linebackers Devin White, Lavonte David, and Shaquil Barrett return, and second-year linebacker Joe Tyron-Shoyinka will be looked to for a breakout year.
Bucs defensive backs Jamel Dean, Antoine Winfield Jr., and Carlton Davis III can make plays. Safety Mike Edwards, who moved into a starting role this year, can do the same.
Special Teams Outlook
Ryan Succop can make big kicks for the Bucs, and punter Jake Camarda can prove he was worth a fourth-round draft pick. Jaelon Darden will return punts in looking to bounce back from a quiet first season. Dynamic rookie Rachaad White will return kickoffs.
