Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Breaking down depth on special teams

The last part of our series, we get to the special teams unit and look to break down their depth at kicker, punter, returners, and long-snapper. The unit as a whole got a massive face lift this offseason all across the board as the majority of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers who returned kicks and punts last year are gone, they signed a new punter, and drafted a new kicker to have a camp competition.

Last season, only two players returned punts for the Buccaneers, and both of those guys are now gone as DeSean Jackson was shipped off to the Philadelphia Eagles for the pick that turned into Scotty Miller, and Adam Humphries signed a four-year deal worth $9 million annually with the Tennessee Titans.
