Linebacker Jack Cichy was a 6th round pick last year for the Buccaneers. The former Wisconsin Badger looked to be working his way into the starting lineup, then came the injury.
Cichy tore his ACL in week seven of last season and started training camp on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list. Thursday night against the Cowboys was Cichy’s second game back. He didn’t disappoint.

Thursday night against the Cowboys, Cichy had a great game, albeit a preseason game. The linebacker had 3 tackles, 1 assist, 1 sack and a fumble recovery. Look for the second year linebacker to have a breakout year under Todd Bowles’ defense.
