Buccaneers sign five players to futures contracts

The Buccaneers continue to work towards building depth early in the offseason. The team has announced that they have signed five players to futures contracts, those players being wide receivers Travis Jonsen, Vyncint Smith, and Austin Watkins, punter Sterling Hofrichter, and Offensive Tackle Jonathan Hubbard.

Jonsen spent time on the Buccaneers practice squad throughout the 2020 and 2021 seasons and also spent time on the Detroit Lions practice squad as well in late 2021. Jonsen garnered praise from Bucs GM Jason Licht during the 2021 offseason and could compete for special teams duties as well as a backup wide receiver job.
