"Nunez-Roches, 32, had spent the last three seasons with the New York Giants but only saw action in nine games last season due to ankle and toe injuries that landed him on injured reserve."
"Bucs coach Todd Bowles said at NFL owners meetings earlier this week that a team goal was to get back to being bigger and more physical along the defensive line and mentioned Nunez-Roches by name."
"We've had, like you said, we've had [William] Gholston and we've had [Nunez-Roches] and we've had [Ndamukong] Suh... So we haven't had the sturdiness, so to speak."
Rakeem Nunez-Roches has re-signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a one-year deal. He previously played for the Bucs from 2018-2022 and contributed to their Super Bowl LV victory. Last season, he played in nine games for the New York Giants due to injuries, recording a career-high 3.0 sacks and 23 combined tackles. Coach Todd Bowles emphasized the need for a more physical defensive line, mentioning Nunez-Roches and new signings A'Shawn Robinson and Al-Quadin Muhammad as key additions.
