Kyle Trask opened its fifth season with the Buccaneers of Tampa Bay on Saturday evening with a solid performance against the Tennessee Titans at the opening of the pre-season in 2025, starting the match and finishing 12 of the 16 passes for 129 yards and a note of 98.2 passers-by. He led the team to an advance of 13-7 at halftime during a possible victory of 29-7.
Trask will not start in a month when the Buccaneers open the regular season. He will be in his third season as the main backup of Baker Mayfield after two years on a depth board which included Tom Brady. But, after having re-signed with Tampa Bay after completing his recruit contract during the offseason, Trask is still at a game of game in the starting role. Everything he can make nights like this against the Titans is working on his job and showing his coaches that he is ready if necessary.
“I’m just anxious to be the best possible,” said Trask. “My thing, my whole career is to control what you can control. I wake up every day and try to be the best possible. I try to be the best I can be in training, my routine, whatever this.
The Buccaneers rested practically all their starters when the pre-season opened, but it just created an opportunity for dozens and dozens of players on a list of 91 men to make their cases for list points and important roles. This is exactly the same thing that has happened in the past three weeks in the training camp, but Saturday evening was definitely a type of different test field.
“The main coach [Todd Bowles] We said we want to see the Playswe all made games in practice, but he wants to see that you can go to a game scenario when the lights are on, “said Trask.” I think that a lot of guys were ready to make games with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights with the lights [on]To hear it just before the match, knowing that this is what the coach was looking for. “”
Trask began the match with an Nifty 25 yards strike at Jalen McMillan second year in second year. Two games later, he found an impressive recipient recruit Emeka Egbuka for 21 yards on a deep loop. Trask took another hit with Egbuka on a third Go road and the young receiver almost pulled him with one hand, but it was incomplete. However, the Buccaneers scored 10 points during his first two records and, critically, there were no games worthy of rolling.
“I thought I did a good job while staying in the rhythm of the game, trying to stay as consistent as possible,” said Trask. “Do not try to do anything special, just play in the diagram. Try to limit the negative games, do not turn the ball and continue to move forward.”
