6 Winners (and 2 Losers) from Buccaneers Preseason Finale Win Over Dolphins

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers wrapped up their preseason with a solid victory over the Miami Dolphins, giving fans a glimpse of what to expect as the regular season approaches. While the win was a team effort, some players stood out more than others, either solidifying their roles or raising concerns. Here’s a look at six winners and two losers from the Buccaneers’ preseason finale.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kyle Trask showed poise and command of the offense, completing 20 of 28 passes for 218 yards and a touchdown. His performance put him firmly in the conversation for the backup quarterback spot behind Baker Mayfield, showcasing his growth and readiness to contribute if needed during the regular season.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rachaad White demonstrated his versatility, gaining 45 yards on 10 carries while adding a few catches out of the backfield. His ability to make plays both on the ground and through the air makes him a valuable asset in the Buccaneers’ offensive scheme.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thompkins made a strong case for a roster spot with his impressive speed and route running. He hauled in five receptions for 65 yards and looked comfortable in the slot, providing a reliable target for the quarterbacks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The rookie defensive tackle made his presence felt, recording a sack and consistently pressuring the Dolphins’ quarterbacks. Kancey’s quickness off the line and disruptive ability are exactly what the Buccaneers envisioned when they drafted him. Tryon-Shoyinka was all over the field, contributing both in pass rush and run defense. He recorded four tackles and a sack, solidifying his role as a key piece in the Buccaneers’ linebacker rotation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Palmer, another wide receiver vying for a roster spot, showcased his playmaking ability with a spectacular 39-yard touchdown catch. His performance could earn him a spot on the final roster, particularly as a deep threat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While Kyle Trask shined, Ryan Griffin struggled to make a significant impact. Completing just 4 of 10 passes for 36 yards, Griffin’s performance likely cemented his status as the odd man out in the Buccaneers’ quarterback room. Vaughn had a rough outing, gaining only 12 yards on seven carries. With White and others showing more promise, Vaughn’s lackluster performance may hurt his chances of earning significant playing time during the regular season.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As the Buccaneers move forward, these performances will undoubtedly influence roster decisions and depth chart placements. With the regular season just around the corner, the team will look to build on these successes and address the areas of concern identified in this preseason finale.
