Tampa Bay held its fifth day of Training Camp on Monday, and it was the first time that the Bucs have worn pads since January. Naturally, practice was a bit more aggressive, and both teams got their first taste of physical football as the regular season nears.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers don’t appear as a Super Bowl contender to football experts. However, don’t be surprised when it’s all said and done that Tampa Bay is playing in the biggest game in American sports.

Every era eventually ends. Even the most beloved, dependable, and decorated players must eventually step off the field. For the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 2025 may mark the final season for two franchise cornerstones: linebacker Lavonte David and wide receiver Mike Evans.
