Team Glazer talks GM Jason Licht

Back in March, Joe asked Team Glazer the question many Bucs fans had about their general manager with a miserable won-loss record. Given today’s news of a new Jason Licht contract, Joe is bumping this up as an important re-read.

A popular question among Bucs fans since January surrounded the employment of GM Jason Licht.
