Tampa Bay Buccaneers have decided to release Kyle Trask due to a shoulder injury, solidifying Teddy Bridgewater as the team’s backup quarterback.
When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers brought Teddy Bridgewater into the mix, speculation arose about Kyle Trask’s future with the team. Head coach Todd Bowles recently confirmed Trask’s release following a shoulder injury suffered in the preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills. Bowles praised Bridgewater’s experience and understanding of the offense, attributing the decision to his accuracy and knowledge of the game.
After Tom Brady led the Buccaneers to a Super Bowl victory, Kyle Trask was drafted as the potential successor. Trask spent his first two seasons learning from Brady until the quarterback retired in February 2023. Following Brady’s retirement, the Buccaneers signed Baker Mayfield on a one-year deal to compete with Trask for the starting role.
