After re-signing all 3 players, they have shifted their attention to bringing back 3 other players who played a big role.

Now, the Buccaneers have shifted their focus to bringing back Rob Gronkowski, Ndamukong Suh, and Ryan Succop. Rob Gronkowski proved invaluable last season. He seemed to pick right back up where he left off from his first retirement.

The Buccaneers brought him in at the behest of Tom Brady. And the duo showed their incredible connection throughout the season. During the Playoffs, Brady and Gronk combined for several touchdowns, even during the Super Bowl.

Ndamukong Suh brought some valuable veteran experience to the Buccaneers’ defensive line. As a defensive end for the Buccaneers, he helped some of the younger members of the roster stay disciplined.

Furthermore, he was crucial during the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs, holding the likes of Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill at bay.

Ryan Succop was the primary kicker for the Buccaneers last season. He made 28 out of his 31 attempted field goals, at a 90% conversion rate.
