As the Tampa Bay Buccaneers announce free agent signings on Wednesday and Thursday, they've lost one of their own.
The Minnesota Vikings have announced the free agent signing of former Buccaneers offensive tackle Justin Skule per Alec Lewis of The Athletic.
Skule appeared in all 17 games for Tampa Bay last season with five starts.
The former Vanderbilt Commodore was a sixth-round draft pick of the San Francisco 49ers in 2019 and played 31 games with 12 starts there before tearing his ACL in 2011 and being released in 2022.
He joined the Buccaneers later that same year when he was signed to the practice squad before being elevated to the 53-man roster.
Skule backed up standout offensive tackle Tristan Wirfs most of last season but will now continue his career with a Buccaneers former division rival in Minnesota.
On Thursday, the Bucs announced numerous free agent signings including Anthony Walker, Haason Reddick, Kindle Vildor, Riley Dixon, Greg Gaines, and Anthony Nelson.
The team has also retained Ben Bredeson, Chris Godwin and Lavonte David.
