Tristan Wirfs

The Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud reports the Buccaneers expect Tristan Wirfs to report to mandatory camp, but he’s not expected to practice.

As Stroud notes in his article, “The team really doesn’t want [Wirfs] to participate and risk getting hurt since he hasn’t done any real full-squad field work with teammates since the loss to the Lions last postseason.” Wirfs is in the final year of his rookie deal and is currently seeking an extension. Right now, he’s set to earn $18.2 million under his fifth-year option this season, and will report to camp to avoid being fined more than $100k for his absence. Wirfs is a three-time Pro Bowler and was a first-team All-Pro back in 2021. The 25-year-old tackle is among the best in the league and is in line for a big payday whenever an extension is reached.
