Former Bucs QB attending rookie camp of division rival
Former Tampa Bay quarterback Kyle Trask is getting another opportunity within the NFC South.
Nick Underhill reported that former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Kyle Trask will attend rookie camp with the New Orleans Saints on a tryout basis alongside Easton Stick. Trask entered the league as a second-round pick out of the Florida Gators in 2021 after Tampa Bay selected him No. 64 overall.
The 6-foot-5, 236-pound quarterback spent multiple seasons in the organization but never appeared in a regular-season NFL game despite remaining in the backup conversation throughout his time with the team. That makes this opportunity important for a reason different from most veteran tryouts. Trask is still only 28 years old, but he enters this stage of his career without meaningful NFL tape, leaving teams to evaluate him more on projection than production.
For New Orleans, bringing Trask into camp adds another arm to evaluate within a quarterback room still searching for long-term stability. For Tampa Bay, it closes another chapter from the Tom Brady transition era, where Trask was originally viewed as a developmental quarterback behind a veteran-led roster.
