The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will not exercise the fifth-year option of outside linebacker Joe Tryon-Shoyinka. As reported by Fox Sports’ Greg Auman, the 2021 first-round pick was set to make $13.2 million in 2025.
The 25 year-old from the University of Washington saw 49% of the defensive reps as a rookie. His second season saw a significant increase to 75% of the defenses reps. Unfortunately his third season saw that number drop to 51% with the emergence of other players at the position.
Tryon-Shoyinka will play the 2024 season with the Buccaneers. He’s then set to be an unrestricted free agent in 2025.
As expected, Bucs will not be exercising the fifth-year option for 2021 first-round pick OLB Joe Tryon-Shoyinka. Would have been $13.2 million for 2025. He has totaled 13 sacks in three seasons.
