It was a better, if not more relaxed, day for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Joint practices are often pretty aggressive, and as a result, both teams decided to take it a little easier on Day 2. This wasn't a padded practice, so there was less hitting in the trenches and pass breakups tend to be a bit harder. Starters aren't set to play in Saturday's preseason game, so a few of these players need some rest before hitting again in a live-game scenario on Saturday.WR Brian Thomas Jr.
It's camp, so turnovers don't always mean too much, but the Buccaneers will probably want to clean those up anyway going forward.who got behind the defense for a deep ball score. In what Palmer is attempting to make his signature move, he threw the ball high in the air in celebration. Head coach Todd Bowles was less impressed when asked about this play in particular: "It would have been a great play if wasn't sacked."
Run defense has always been a pride of Tampa Bay's defense, but it faltered a tad on Wednesday with a few splash plays here and there. That wasn't the case on Thursday, as the Buccaneers defense tightened down and didn't allow any big scampers from players like Travis Etienne in the backfield. There were no pads on, so take that how you will, but it was a nice change of pace from Wednesday and a further testament to Tampa Bay's defensive line.River Wells is a sports journalist from St. Petersburg, Florida, who has covered the Tampa Bay Buccaneers since 2023.
