The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were founded in 1974 and play their home games at Raymond James Stadium.

Under head coach Todd Bowles and general manager Jason Licht, the current roster features quarterback Baker Mayfield, running backs Kenny Gainwell and Bucky Irving, receivers Chris Godwin Jr., Emeka Egbuka, and Tez Johnson, tight end Cade Otton, defensive tackle Vita Vea, and safety Antoine Winfield Jr. The club is owned by Bryan Glazer.
