The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have re-signed wide receiver Sterling Shepard to a one-year deal, a familiar face for quarterback Baker Mayfield from their college days at Oklahoma. Shepard, who was drafted by the New York Giants in 2016, had a solid run with the Buccaneers last season, contributing with 32 receptions for 334 yards and one touchdown. Initially joining the Bucs in 2024 after being waived by the Giants, Shepard made impactful plays despite limited opportunities. His return signifies the Buccaneers' confidence in his ability to enhance their receiving corps as they aim for a competitive season ahead.
