Tampa Bay Buccaneers agree to deal with Carl Nassib, source says

TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers agreed to a one-year deal with outside linebacker Carl Nassib on Monday, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Reserve outside linebacker Cam Gill suffered a Lisfranc injury in the Bucs' preeason opener Saturday. The team did not re-sign veteran Jason Pierre-Paul this offseason, with 2021 first-round draft pick Joe Tryon-Shoyinka stepping into Pierre-Paul's starting role.

Along with Anthony Nelson, Nassib can serve in a rotational role for the Bucs, although he did start 17 of 29 games in a previous two-year stint in Tampa (2018-19), registering 12.
