Bucs re-sign RB Chase Edmonds to 1-year deal

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are re-signing backup running back Chase Edmonds to a new one-year contract

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are keeping another one of their in-house free agents, re-signing running back Chase Edmonds to a one-year deal, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Edmonds was the primary backup to starter Rachaad White when healthy last season, and he’ll now return for seemingly the same role in 2024 on another one-year contract.

This move likely takes the Bucs out of the running for spending an early-round pick on a No. 2 running back to pair with White, but as Edmonds is more of a quick and shifty back, it wouldn’t be surprising if Tampa Bay still targeted a power back for short-yardage situations at some point in the draft.
