Sua Opeta is leaving the Philadelphia Eagles in free agency to sign a one-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to a report from Rick Stroud.
And so ends an Eagles tenure that lasted longer than most would’ve expected when the team originally signed Opeta as an undrafted rookie free agent following the 2019 NFL Draft.
Opeta, who turns 28 in August, made 10 starts in 38 games played for the Eagles dating back to the 2020 season. Six of those starts came last year when he was deemed as the top backup guard option behind an injured Cam Jurgens.
