ALWAYS ask for the Ira Kaufman discount at Bill Currie Ford, where GM Sean Sullivan will beat any advertised price by $100. Don’t Worry. Drive Currie!

If the biggest issue through two days of training camp is the whereabouts of Randy Gregory, you’re having a whale of a summer.

Look at what’s going on across the rest of the National Football League. (more…)

In case you were wondering what became of the Bucs’ average returner and very meh receiver from the 2023 season, Deven Thompkins, he signed with the Panthers today.

Thompkins had a family dispute made public that raised questions about his behavior around the time the Bucs cut him this spring, but the NFL investigated and it seems Thompkins met the league’s standards of acceptable behavior.

He joins ex-Bucs receiver David Moore (epic catch-and-run touchdown against the Eagles in the playoffs last season) trying to make the Panthers team led by former Tampa Bay playcaller Dave Canales.

Making tough catches… so far.

The Bucs have only had two training camp practices. The pads have yet to come on. And even though Joe should know better than to anoint receivers in underwear football, time to dip a toe into the pool. (more…)

Gave Johnny Football vibes.

One thing Joe noticed so far this week as Bucs training camp opened several players bringing the juice to practice. (more…)

Chris Godwin after Day 2 of training camp.

Eyebrow-raising exchange today at One Buc Palace. (more…)

Todd Bowles

Who’s the hardest offseason worker on the Bucs?

Todd Bowles has an answer. (more…)

Tristan Wirfs

Manbeast left tackle Tristan Wirfs is demanding a contract extension and the Buccaneers want to get one done. So what’s the holdup? (more…)

Offensive coordinator Liam Coen and Baker Mayfield meet during Day 2 of the Bucs’ 2024 training camp.

So in Day 2 of Bucs training camp, though it is early, very early, Joe suspects there will be a three-way battle for the No. 3 receiver spot, Backup quarterback Kyle Trask improved somewhat from an awful first day of camp, and a high draft pick logged a bunch of reps with the first team.

Again, as a reminder, we’re still in underwear football where hitting is absolutely prohibited. The pads are scheduled to come on Monday, but that is subject to change. (more…)

An iconic Buccaneers Super Bowl figure retired and Joe had to get feedback from other Tampa Bay greats. (more…)

Beastly Bucs edge rusher Yaya Diaby.

Head coach Todd Bowles went out of his way to make a positive example out of second-year edge rusher Yaya Diaby today. (more…)

Chase Edmonds

The guy who might be the Bucs’ second-best running back was on the sidelines today wearing sweatpants and a baseball hat. (more…)

Joe’s got plenty coming from Day 2 of Bucs training camp. Practice wraps up before 11.

Chasing a legend.

It is safe to say if any NFL receiver is included in the same sentence as Jerry Rice, that’s about the highest honor possible. (more…)

More focused prep work.

During his first two NFL seasons, cornerback Zyon McCollum was all over the place. (more…)

Chris Godwin getting a lot of post-practice work in yesterday.

Joe often is asked the simplest of simple questions. What struck you most about Day 1 of training camp? (more…)
