The Tampa Bay Buccaneers pass-rush has been more hot and cold in 2024 than Katy Perry could even begin to understand. They have been searching for answers to their issues in that department with no luck.
Late Friday night, the Bucs may have found an answer by signing former Bucs edge rusher and Super Bowl champion Shaq Barrett to their active roster.
The Bucs made the move official on Saturday morning when they welcomed him back on social media.

Barrett signed with the Dolphins early in 2024 but decided to retire shortly thereafter. He announced he wanted to come out of retirement, and the Dolphins decided to release him rather than add him to their active roster.
The Dolphins loss is the Bucs gain as they bring back the fan favorite pass rusher with 59 career sacks.
