Legendary Bucs radio announcer Gene Deckerhoff to return for 36th season

The legendary radio voice of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is back for another season behind the mic

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers recently announced their local broadcasting lineups for the upcoming 2024 NFL season, and a familiar name is still included.

Gene Deckerhoff, the Bucs’ legendary radio announcer, is returning for his 36th season.

Deckerhoff recently retired after a long run of calling Florida State football games on the radio, as well, but it looks like he’ll be sticking around for at least another year as the indelible radio voice of Bucs football.

“Our local broadcast stations play a huge part in what we do all year round, and an even more important role when it comes to delivering the game live to our Krewe. Whether you’re listening from the car or at home with your family, fans have access to tune into any Buccaneers game, home or away to hear live game analysis,” said Buccaneers Chief Operating Officer Brian Ford in the team’s official release. “Buccaneers Radio Network has worked hard to strengthen our partnership with NIA Broadcasting as we broaden our audience reach by offering Spanish-speaking fans alternative ways to listen to Buccaneers games.”
