Buccaneers: Does Tanner Hudson make Cameron Brate expendable?

Over the past three seasons, tight end Cameron Brate has been a go-to and reliable target for quarterback Jameis Winston to target. However, with his $7 million due to him this season, can the Tampa Bay Buccaneers afford to keep him?

With the development and standout performances of backup tight end Tanner Hudson, has Brate become expendable for the Buccaneers? In the first two weeks of the preseason, Hudson has set a torrid pace, totaling 13 catches for 177 yards and two touchdowns with the backups.

Listed at a massive 6-5 and 240 pounds, Hudson has been a matchup nightmare thus far for opposing teams.
