    The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will release a running back

    The Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost the biggest piece of their offense this offseason. The Buccaneers plan on tearing down other parts of their offense as the Buccaneers start their operations without Tom Brady. The Buccaneers aren’t sure of who their starting quarterback will be next season. They’ll have a hole on the roster at running back as well.

    According to Tom Pelissero with the NFL Network, the Buccaneers will release Leonard Fournette in March. The move will how the Buccaneers to spread Fournette’s cap hit. The team needs to save cap space as they’re currently over $56 million in the red, according to Over The Cap.

    Fournette has $2 million fully guaranteed left on his contract and another $2M would’ve become fully guaranteed on March 19. Instead, he’ll be a free agent after the league year begins, allowing TB to spread the cap hit. https://t.co/qmkbJ1x9cV

    The 28-year-old still has plenty of football left in him. Fournette will draw much interest in free agency. He ran the ball for 668 yards and had three rushing touchdowns last season. Fournette was a former first-round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was a helpful addition to the Buccaneers squad that won Super Bowl LV.
