Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Records TD on one catch
Devin Culp brought in his only target for a six-yard touchdown in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 29-28 loss to the Falcons on Thursday night.Culp was able to crack the stat sheet for the first time all season, making his one catch count via a six-yard score just past the midway point of the third quarter. He had a solid preseason and entered the 2025 campaign with expectations of a more prominent role behind Cade Otton (knee), but it took the latter's first absence of the season Thursday for Culp to finally get on the board while playing a season-high 20 snaps.

Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Won't suit up vs. Houston
Devin Culp (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Texans, Scott Smith of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' official site reports.The 2024 seventh-rounder managed to make the Bucs' 53-man roster at the end of training camp but has been a healthy scratch for the first two games of the regular season. It appears Culp is unlikely to be active for gameday unless Cade Otton, Payne Durham or Ko Kieft were to miss time due to injury or illness.

Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Healthy scratch Week 1
Devin Culp (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Atlanta.With Cade Otton overcoming a lingering groin injury to play Week 1, Culp will observe Sunday's game in street clothes while Payne Durham and Ko Kieft serve in backup roles at tight end. Culp managed to make the Bucs' 53-man roster after a strong training camp, but the 2024 seventh-rounder is unlikely to see much playing time unless Otton, Durham or Kieft were to miss time. Culp's next chance to play is Week 2 against Houston on Monday, Sept. 15.

Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Could see early-season boost
Devin Culp is in line to see increased target opportunities if No. 1 tight end Cade Otton (leg) is sidelined to open the regular season, Brianna Dix of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' official site reports.Head coach Todd Bowles previously remarked that Otton is expected "to be out a little bit," without further details. However, more information on a projected return timeline is expected during Week 1 practices next week, and Dix notes the Buccaneers will take a "committee approach" at tight end for any games Otton might be sidelined for. Considering No. 3 tight Ko Kieft has all of one reception since the beginning of the 2023 season, such a scenario would leave Culp and Payne Durham as the only legitimate pass-catching options at the position to open the season. That was the case during Weeks 16-18 last season when Otton sat out with a knee injury, a span in which Culp flashed some downfield chops while recording a 5-88-0 line on six targets. The second-year pro also generated three first downs on his five preseason receptions this summer, including on a 22-yard grab in the exhibition finale against the Bills on Saturday night.

Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Three grabs to close out preseason
Devin Culp secured all three targets for 33 yards and lost a fumble in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 23-19 preseason loss to the Bills on Saturday night.The athletic tight end played a position-high 20 snaps from scrimmage and made good use of his three targets, but his turnover late in the third quarter came in Bills territory. Nevertheless, Culp appears to be a virtual lock for the 53-man roster as a complementary pass-catching option alongside No. 1 tight end Cade Otton, following a solid training camp and preseason that have earned him accolades from new offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard.

Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Pair of grabs in preseason opener
Devin Culp secured two of four targets for 13 yards in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 29-7 preseason win over the Titans on Saturday night.The athletic tight end carried over a bit of the momentum he'd been building during training camp practices, finishing as one of five Bucs players to record multiple catches on the night. Both of Culp's receptions came on connections with Kyle Trask and occurred on the final drive of the first half, and given how much new offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard has talked up the second-year pro's potential, Culp is likely to see extended opportunity over Tampa Bay's two remaining preseason contests.

Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Raising expectations for Year 2
Devin Culp, who showed some late-season promise as a rookie seventh-round pick in 2024, has stood out in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' early training camp practices, Brianna Dix of the team's official site reports.Culp posted a 5-88-0 line on six targets over Weeks 17 and 18 of the 2024 regular season when Cade Otton sat out due to a knee injury, flashing some downfield chops with a pair of catches of 20-plus yards. With 6-foot-4, 237-pound dimensions, Culp's athleticism, which was on display with an acrobatic catch on the sideline in Thursday's training camp practice, and ability to beat linebackers down the seam is something that has Baker Mayfield excited for what it can bring to the offense. "Devin has taken a lot of steps," noted Mayfield. "He is a guy that is extremely athletic for his size and can really run, so just being able to have a guy like that [is huge]. Cade [Otton] is trustworthy and is more of our dominant meathead guy but having an athletic guy like Dev to stretch the field at the tight end position will create mismatch problems."

Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Shows potential as rookie
Devin Culp brought in five of six targets for 88 yards across five regular-season games in 2024.The rookie seventh-round pick had played all of five snaps from scrimmage in Weeks 7, 8 and 16 when Cade Otton's knee injury afforded him additional opportunity over the last two regular-season games. Culp played 19 and 16 snaps in Weeks 17 and 18, respectively, while operating as a complementary tight end alongside Payne Durham, and he generated all of his stats during that pair of contests. Culp displayed some downfield prowess during that span by tallying two receptions of 20-plus yards among his five grabs, and he should have plenty of opportunity this offseason and in training camp to make a case for more playing time as he heads into the second year of his rookie contract in 2025.

Buccaneers' Devin Culp: Impressive on two catches
Devin Culp secured both targets for 36 yards in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 27-19 win over the Saints on Sunday.Culp once again made good use of his opportunities with Cade Otton (knee) sidelined, flashing his downfield chops with catches of 16 and 20 yards in the playoff-clinching win. The rookie has been impressive over the last pair of contests, but he may be relegated back to a minor role in Sunday night's wild-card home battle against the Commanders if Otton is able to return to action.
