The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had some issues with consistent play on defense in the secondary. Not to be lost int he shuffle though is the play at linebacker. Outside of Lavonte David, everyone in the position group has been rather underwhelming.
On Monday, the Seahawks released linebacker Tyrel Dodson, a move that shocked and confused many in the NFL.
In nine games with the Seahawks, he has 71 tackles, two sacks, five tackles for loss, and one forced fumble. The Seahawks have been getting a youth movement going, and despite just signing with them this offseason, Dodson was the odd man out.
The Bucs could use him to play alongside Lavonte David to help the Bucs establish a better run defense and help in coverage. Vita Vea and Calijah Kancey could also use the help, which would potentially allow them to get more pass rush help up front.
It is a move that makes sense for all parties, and Jason Licht should consider making it.
