The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have loved the growth of defensive lineman Vita Vea over the years. Through 11 games of the 2024 season, Vea is looking like one of the best interior defensive lineman in the league today.
This week, Bucs head coach Todd Bowles spoke about the dominance he has displayed this season.
“I mean, he has a good season every year for me. It’s not about the Pro Bowl, it’s about helping us win and the accolades will come as they come. . .In my opinion, he’s playing good football, he’s got the sacks to show it – that’s not the whole story that it tells because he’s destroying the middle and he’s keeping us in ballgames.”
Pro Bowl voting opened this week and Bowles also discussed how Vea has been deserving of a spot In past years but recognizes that a team’s record plays a role. If the Bucs can win a couple more games and Vea plays a part then perhaps we can see him being apart of Eli or Peyton Manning’s team.
