Buccaneers Bring Back Kyle Trask As Backup QB

Wednesday, March 12, 10:50 PM

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers agreed to terms to re-sign quarterback Kyle Trask on Wednesday night on a one-year, $2.787 million deal, a source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The former second-round selection (64th overall) in 2021 out of the University of Florida will return in 2025 to backup Baker Mayfield. In his three years in the NFL, the 27-year-old has appeared in only seven games (no starts) and has gone 4-for-11 for 28 yards without a touchdown or interception. Although the Buccaneers are on their third different offensive coordinator in the last three years, Trask has familiarity with the organization. However, should Mayfield go down with an injury in 2025, Tampa's offense will probably be in serious trouble given Trask's lack of NFL experience.

Hendon Hooker Leading Lions QB2 Battle Entering Training Camp

Friday, July 18, 10:50 AM

It would be "surprising" if Detroit Lions quarterback Hendon Hooker loses the backup job behind Jared Goff to veteran Kyle Allen, according to Colton Pouncy of The Athletic. Detroit drafted Hooker out of Tennessee in the third round back in 2023, and he spent the majority of his rookie season rehabbing from a torn ACL. Hooker was the team's nominal backup for most of 2024, but Detroit signed veteran Teddy Bridgewater to take over the job down the stretch of the season, signaling a lack of comfort with Hooker in the role. Pouncy writes that while Hooker should be considered the favorite entering camp, he "needs to show development." It would take an injury to Goff for either of Detroit's backup quarterback options to be fantasy-relevant.
