One thing that’s a given for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is that no matter how the 2024 season turns out, their defense is getting an overhaul in 2025.
Bleacher Report’s Matt Holder thinks veteran Detroit Lions defensive end John Cominsky could be part of that overhaul as an inexpensive option to help Tampa Bay — specifically in how they approach defending the run.
Cominsky signed a 2-year, $8.5 million contract with the Lions in March 2023 and suffered a season-ending MCL tear during training camp on July 30, 2024.
“Greg Gaines and William Gholston are impending free agents, which will leave Tampa Bay thin on the interior defensive line,” Holder wrote. “Also, while Calijah Kancey and Logan Hall are good pass-rushers, both have issues against the run. Cominsky would be a good fit since he can replace Gains and Gholston, and he has been a solid run defender during his career to complement Kancey and Hall.”
