TAMPA, Fla. - Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles said one day after cutting backup quarterback Kyle Trask in advance of Tuesday's roster cutdown is that they feel they have a "better chance" with veteran Teddy Bridgewater.
Trask, a second-round draft pick out of the University of Florida in 2021, had served as a third-string quarterback under Tom Brady for two seasons but always maintained a spot on the 53-man roster.
Then in 2023, Trask competed with Baker Mayfield throughout the training camp and in the preseason for the starting quarterback role that ultimately went to Mayfield, with Trask serving as the backup the last two seasons.
