BIG NIGHT FOR BACKUP BUCS LBS TRYING TO SURVIVE CUTS

Veterans might downplay the importance of the third preseason game, but the reality is that Friday night will be the last game in a Tampa Bay Buccaneers uniform for at least 12 current players.

The “dress rehearsal” game, as it’s often called, is when most teams leave projected starters on the field longer than any other. Key contributors get to knock off a little more rust before Week 1 and coaches get to see their offensive and defensive schemes put to work by first-teamers for more than just a few series.
