The Tampa Bay Buccaneers reportedly plan to release backup quarterback Kyle Trask, a four-year NFL veteran out of Florida.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers plan to release backup quarterback Kyle Trask, according to a report from ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. Trask has been the backup for the franchise since he was drafted in 2021.
The Buccaneers initially added Trask with the No. 64 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, a second-round pick. He has been on the roster ever since, though he has not really gotten a chance to play much.
Kyle Trask has thrown only 11 passes in the NFL, completing four of them for 28 yards. He has not thrown a touchdown pass or an interception.
To date, Trask has appeared in just seven NFL games. He will revert to the injured reserve with a shoulder issue, where he will be able to work out an injury settlement or a release.
There will likely be a market for the 6-foot-5, 236-pound backup, though. Kyle Trask is a former Heisman Trophy finalist, finishing fourth for the prestigious award during an extremely productive 2020 campaign at Florida.
On3 will have more on this developing story shortly.
