The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will rack up quite a few miles as it plays each team on its 2023 schedule.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter posted a graphic on Twitter that displayed each team’s total travel miles for the 2023 season, and the Bucs are among the most — Tampa Bay is set to travel 23,764 miles in 2023, good for ninth-most in the NFL. The Seattle Seahawks are set to travel the most while the Cincinnati Bengals will travel the least.

All of Tampa Bay’s rivals are in the bottom half of the league in travel time. The Falcons will travel the 16th-most, the Saints the 25th-most and the Panthers the 29th-most in the league. The only team the Bucs play in 2023 that is above them in travel time is the San Francisco 49ers, who are second on the list.

The Bucs are playing a first-place schedule in 2023 after winning the NFC South in 2022, so Tampa Bay could have a tough run ahead of it if it wants to make it back to the playoffs during a potential Super Bowl run.
