When Ryan Jensen went down in practice before the season started, I totally agree. Don’t risk him getting injured.

I always watch these videos next morning at work. Love the channel, keep up the great work.

Baker is a master in reading defenses.

[@runningbeard7380]

As a former Browns fan, I recall HOF LT Joe Thomas usually sat out OTAs... cuz he's Joe Thomas. You don't want to risk your LT getting hurt in May when the season starts in September. It's also about trust, if they trust Tristan to do the work off-the-field, then what's the problem? He's going to get 4x100mil

Fun broadcast today!

Wirfs and Barton 😮

Voluntary

[@Arab2020]

Doesn't Tristan still have a fifth year option next year will be his fourth year, right?

[@LockedOnBucs]

This is his fifth year option season so he would become a free agent after this season if an extension doesn't get done

[@Arab2020]

[@NOAH2023]

With the close friendship between Tristan and Baker this deal will get done. If you thought Baker was insistent that Evans be signed, how much more will he insist Wirfs be signed ?

[@stanglassman]

Supposably the Bucs were close with Wirfs until The Detroit Lions dropped the bank on Penei Sewell and reset the market.
