Ryan Neal: Returning to Tampa Bay
The Buccaneers signed Neal to the practice squad Wednesday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.
Neal played in 15 regular-season games for the Buccaneers in 2023 and finished with 76 tackles (52 solo). He didn't try out for a team during training camp, but he is back with Tampa Bay on the practice squad as the Bucs look to shore up the secondary amidst injuries to Mike Edwards (hamstring), Tykee Smith (knee) and Jordan Whitehead (pectoral).

Buccaneers' Ryan Neal: Solid campaign in '23
Neal compiled 76 tackles (52 solo) across 15 regular-season games in 2023, adding three tackles (one solo) in two postseason games.
The veteran enjoyed a solid statistical Bucs debut campaign, logging the second-most regular-season snaps from scrimmage of his career (563) and setting a career high in tackles. However, he failed to force any turnovers and also surrendered an 87.5 percent completion rate, four touchdowns and 19.9 yards per attempt on the 16 passes that went his way in primary coverage. Neal played on a one-year deal in 2023, and there's a chance the Buccaneers opt to go younger at strong safety next season.
