The 2023 season proved to be a productive one for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Baker Mayfield showed Tampa Bay he can be “the guy” for their team, they won the NFC South, and even eliminated the Philadelphia Eagles in the wild card round before running into the Detroit Lions in the divisional round.
Their expectations will only increase going into the 2024 season, and multi-time Super Bowl Champion wants to be apart of it.
2x Super Bowl Champion Willing To Un-Retire To Join Buccaneers
After a brief offseason stint with the Miami Dolphins, former Tampa Bay Buccaneers outside linebacker Shaquil Barrett retired from the NFL. But he revealed on Thursday that his career may not be over yet:
Barrett spoke with Kay Adams on her show Up & Adams, and she asked him if he would ever come out of retirement to play football again. He told her that he would, but only if the “perfect scenario” arose and that he was happy with being retired at the moment. Naturally, Adams pressed him on this, and he revealed some more clues as to what that scenario was.
“It’s a location and a team,” Barrett told Adams. “It ain’t got nothing to do with winning a Super Bowl… it’s just one team, one team that I’d come out of retirement for. That’s it.”
After a flurry of hints — including a section where Barrett said “It’s a geographic location that I might have a home at, or had a home at,” — he eventually relented, revealing that the one team he’d come back to in a “perfect scenario” was the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
“I’m not returning anywhere, I’m still happily retired,” Barrett said. “But if something were to happen, yeah,” Barrett sai
In Tampa Bay, Barrett certainly left his mark on the team. In his career with the Buccaneers, he amassed 249 combined tackles, 45 sacks, three interceptions, and a Super Bowl ring to boot.
He also spent four year with the Denver Broncos where he won Super Bowl 50.
