Defensive Backs


The starters are all set here, too, but there’s plenty to watch. First off, everyone will want to keep any eye on CB Brian Kelly to make sure he’s fully recovered from the turf toe injury that ruined his season last year. In addition, you’ll want to watch safeties Jermaine Phillips and Will Allen very closely. Neither played very well last year and they must improve to keep their jobs. Alan Zemaitis is another player to watch. The Bucs still have high hopes for him but he couldn’t earn a roster spot on game day before going down with an injury last year so he has to prove himself. In terms of battles, the battle for the nickel back’s job is one to watch. With Juran Bolden gone the job will likely go to Phillip Buchanon, but either Zemaitis or rookie Tanard Jackson could beat him out. Sabby Piscitelli bears watching, too. He’s drawn some comparisons to John Lynch because of the way he hits and could unseat one of the projected starters at safety if he plays to his capabilities.
