The first player for the Buccaneers has opted out of the 2020 NFL season, and while it isn’t a starting player, it is not an easy loss.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have been fortunate not to lose any of their star players so far to the opt-out process for NFL players if they want to take extra precautions due to COVID-19.

Numerous teams have lost some extremely talented players who have made the difficult decision to sit out for the year, and more big names could follow over the next few hours.
