Special Teams Must Be Better For Buccaneers

The Buccaneers had a busy offseason, making a wealth of changes to the entire roster. Some of those changes came on special teams, most notably with the selection of kicker Roberto Aguayo in the second round of the NFL Draft. It was wise of the Bucs to address their special teams situation, as they struggled heavily a year ago.

Between Kyle Brindza and Connor Barth at the kicking position, Tampa Bay made 72.5 percent of its field goals (29-for-40), which was 30th in the league. The Bucs’ 91.2 percent mark on extra points (31-for-34) was 26th in the NFL.
