Buccaneers' Kyle Trask: Gets public vote of confidence
Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich said Wednesday that Trask has been "improving drastically" this summer, Andrew Crane of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
The second-year signal-caller appeared to take a step back in the second preseason game against the Titans after he was impressive in the exhibition opener versus the Dolphins, throwing for 258 yards and completing 25 of his 33 attempts in that contest. However, Leftwich confirmed Wednesday that Trask is improving on various aspects of his game that aren't necessarily evident from a spectator's perspective, and he added that the 24-year-old's progress is especially relevant when measured against the amount of reps he's received. Tom Brady's recent 11-day personal leave from the team opened up plenty of short-term opportunity, however, and despite the future Hall of Famer's recent return, Trask should still see ample playing time in Saturday's preseason finale against the Colts.
