Buccaneers tightend Timothy Wright is excited to be back in Tampa and is ready to take on a contributing role with the team, per The Tampa Tribune.
Wright, who started his career with the Bucs before being traded to the Patriots last year, is glad to be back where his career started two seasons ago.
“I’m pretty happy about (the opportunity) to step in and contribute right away,” Wright said.
Buccaneers coach Lovie Smith said the move to bring back Wright, who caught five touchdowns as a rookie for the team, makes the Bucs a better team.
“It was an easy decision to make on Tim,” Bucs coach Lovie Smith said. “We liked Tim (last year). We decided to go in a different direction, but now we’re a stronger football team with Tim on our team. It’s good to have him back.”
