The Patriots' post-Tom Brady era hasn't gone swimmingly, so the same fate may befall the Buccaneers. Still, with WRs Mike Evans and Chris Godwin on hand, Brady's replacement should have it easier in Tampa Bay.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
2020
Wolford arrives in Tampa Bay with more experience than the average third-string quarterback around the league. The Wake Forest product just completed a three-year Rams tenure where he logged eight starts, including one postseason game, the same number he drew with the AAF's Arizona Hotshots in 2019. Wolford is therefore arguably a viable option for head coach Todd Bowles should Baker Mayfield and Kyle Trask both falter in the top job.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Likely headed back to Rams
Wolford is expected to be signed by the Rams off the Buccaneers' practice squad, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Matthew Stafford suffered a thumb injury in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys, and if he's unable to play in Week 9 against Green Bay, the Rams will need someone to back up Brett Rypien. Wolford is familiar with Sean McVay's system, having played for Los Angeles each of the last three seasons, albeit with limited success.
