Ian Rapoport reported on Thursday that the Bucs will re-sign quarterback Blaine Gabbert to a one-year deal.
Brought in to be Jameis Winston’s backup in 2019 after playing with the Cardinals under head coach Bruce Arians in 2017, Gabbert’s season ended before it could ever begin after dislocating his shoulder in the team’s third preseason game against the Cleveland Browns.
Gabbert would be placed on the injured reserve in September and never returned to Tampa Bay’s active roster.
