Source: Buccaneers releasing left tackle Donovan Smith

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are releasing left tackle Donovan Smith, a source told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

The Bucs have discussed potentially moving All-Pro right tackle Tristan Wirfs to left tackle in 2023, sources have told ESPN.

The Buccaneers will save $7.95 million against their salary cap by releasing Smith.

The Buccaneers, who are approximately $55 million over the salary cap, also are expected to release tight end Cameron Brate, a source told Fowler last week.

Smith, 29, has started 124 games for the Buccaneers in his eight seasons with the team, including 13 last season.
