Vita Vea Trade Request Shakes Bucs | Tampa Bay Buccaneers News

Vita Vea, Tampa Bay’s unstoppable defensive anchor and fan favorite, has filed a trade request, signaling serious contract talks are stalled. With a massive 6’4”, 347-pound presence and eight seasons as a Bucs cornerstone, his departure would leave a gaping hole — forcing Elijah Simmons, Jayson Jones, and rookie DeMonte Capehart to step up. While the team’s focus remains on Baker Mayfield’s extension deadline, Vea’s camp is pushing hard for a deal or a move. Expect a major decision within the next month — either he stays and renews, or Tampa’s defense gets shaken up. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
