Wagering on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2025: Super Bowl chances, overall wins, props, top bets for the Buccaneers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have made significant moves to bolster their defense ahead of the 2025 NFL season. One of their key acquisitions is edge rusher Haason Reddick, who signed a one-year, $14 million contract in the offseason.
Reddick, who had four consecutive 10+ sack seasons before a down year with the New York Jets, is expected to play a critical role in the Buccaneers' defense. Tampa Bay's defensive scheme, under Todd Bowles, is expected to lean heavily on Reddick’s pass-rushing talents, giving him ample opportunity to rebound and contribute significantly to the team’s defense.
In addition to Reddick, the Bucs also drafted Emeka Egbuka as their first-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. Egbuka, a dynamic running back, is expected to provide a boost to the Bucs' offense, which finished 16th in scoring in 2023 but could potentially finish top 10 in 2025.
The Bucs' defensive front, consisting of Vita Vea, Logan Hall, Calijah Kancey, Yaya Diaby, Lavonte David, and potentially Reddick, is expected to be one of the best in the league. This strong defensive line, combined with the Bucs' potent offense, led by quarterback Baker Mayfield and receivers Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, could make Tampa Bay a formidable force in the NFC.
Godwin, who signed an extension with the Buccaneers in the offseason, had a standout 2023 season, catching 88 passes for 1,200 yards and 10 touchdowns. Evans, meanwhile, had his 11th straight season with 1,000 receiving yards, finishing with 1,150 yards and 8 touchdowns.
The Bucs' improved defense and potent offense could help them build on their success from the 2023 season, where they won the NFC South division for the fourth consecutive year and made the playoffs for the fifth straight season, the longest active streak in the NFC.
However, the Bucs could face challenges in the early part of the 2025 season, with starting right tackle Tristan Wirfs expected to miss the first four weeks due to knee surgery. Wirfs, who underwent surgery in July 2023, is likely to start the season on the physically unable to perform list.
Despite this challenge, the Bucs have odds of +110 to win the NFC South on FanDuel, and Mike Evans has odds of -110 to have over 7.5 receiving touchdowns on DraftKings. The Bucs' strong roster and proven track record of success make them a team to watch in the 2025 NFL season.
