Bucs RB Bobby Rainey states for the record he is not a fumbler.

Seems Bucs C Evan Smith and “America’s Quarterback” were at odds a fair amount of time in OTAs.

ASJ needs to knock off the Michael Clayton impersonation.
It is beginning to worry Joe. Through seven training camp practices, tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins has been unable to come up with easy catches.

On WDAE-AM 620 this afternoon, Bucs general manager Jason Licht skyrocketed hopes even more when it comes to Marpet. [read more]
