The Bucs gave Trask a one-year contract to stick with the crew within the offseason.
They drafted him out of Florida late within the second spherical of the 2021 NFL Draft, and whereas he hasn’t lived as much as the hype from his faculty days, he has been a really serviceable backup.
He was a Heisman trophy finalist in 2020 after main the nation in landing passes (43) and posting the second-most passing yards (4,283).
He backed up Tom Brady earlier than serving the identical position behind Baker Mayfield.
That’s why he’s barely been in a position to take the sphere to date, with simply 32 offensive snaps to his identify.
To date, he’s accomplished 4 of 11 passes for 28 yards, and he’s finished most of his harm within the preseason.
By 12 preseason appearances (three begins), he’s accomplished 158 of 254 passes (62.2%) for 1,671 passing yards, seven scores, and 6 picks.
He’ll now compete with Michael Pratt for the backup spot, however he needs to be within the lead there.
Even so, Mayfield is without doubt one of the hardest gamers within the league, and he’s confirmed that he’s not afraid to play via harm or put his physique on the road to assist his crew, so taking part in time may proceed to be scarce for the previous Gator.
