The Tampa Bay Buccaneers head into training camp in 2025 with key players looking to prove their worth. Cornerback Jamel Dean aims to reclaim his status as a defensive anchor after a season marred by inconsistency and injuries. With Carlton Davis III gone, Dean faces fierce competition from younger corners. Meanwhile, linebacker Chris Braswell, a second-round draft pick, strives to establish himself as more than a rotational player, seizing his chance to fill the void left by Joe Tryon-Shoyinka.

As training camp approaches, the Bucs' roster is poised for fierce competition, especially in the secondary where Dean must show he can bounce back from previous failures and silence doubts about his long-term viability. For Braswell, this is a pivotal moment to showcase his potential to elevate the Buccaneers' pass rush and secure a more prominent role in the defense.
