Overview
- The Buccaneers agreed to sign linebacker Christian Rozeboom on Monday, according to his agents speaking to NFL Network.
- Multiple outlets report the contract is a one-year deal, signaling a stopgap addition rather than a long-term commitment.
- Rozeboom led the Panthers with 122 tackles last season and has 257 tackles over the past two years with Carolina and the Rams.
- He started 15 games for Carolina in 2025 and profiles as a strong run defender with weaker pass coverage, which likely points to early-down usage.
- Tampa Bay has been fortifying the position with veterans, adding Alex Anzalone earlier this offseason, and Rozeboom stays in the NFC South after a year in Carolina.
