Haason Reddick Absent From Buccaneers OTAs for Third Straight Year

Signed to a one-year, $14 million contract this off-season, the veteran edge rusher has yet to attend any team practices with coach Todd Bowles expecting his arrival.

Overview

  • Reddick did not attend the first day of Buccaneers organized team activities, marking his third consecutive season missing OTAs with different teams.
  • Tampa Bay signed the nine-year pro to a one-year, $14 million deal this off-season to address its need for experienced edge rushers.
  • Coach Todd Bowles said he anticipates Reddick will report to the facility, noting several other high-profile veterans have also been sidelined due to minor injuries.
  • The former Eagles standout previously held out from training camp with both Philadelphia and the New York Jets while seeking long-term contract extensions.
  • Philadelphia traded Reddick to the Jets for a conditional third-round draft pick in April after he recorded 27 sacks over two seasons in Philadelphia.
