The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have officially signed veteran offensive tackle Justin Skule, according to a report from @AdamSchefter. The move ensures the return of a key depth piece to the Buccaneers' offensive line as they continue to finalize their roster for the upcoming season.
Justin Skule, 27, has been a consistent presence for Tampa Bay over the last two seasons. Originally a sixth-round draft pick by the San Francisco 49ers in 2019, Skule joined the Buccaneers' practice squad in 2022 before earning a permanent spot on the active roster. In 2023, he appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the team, primarily contributing on special teams and serving as the primary backup at tackle.
Standing at 6-foot-6 and 315 pounds, Skule brings significant experience to the locker room with 48 career NFL games and 12 starts under his belt. His familiarity with the Buccaneers' offensive system provides the team with reliable veteran insurance behind starters Tristan Wirfs and Luke Goedeke. Details regarding the length and financial terms of the contract have not yet been released.
