  • John Wolford: Joins Jags' practice squad

    Jacksonville signed Wolford to its practice squad Tuesday.

    Wolford was cut by Tampa Bay prior to the start of the regular season, but he's now getting another opportunity with a different team. With Trevor Lawrence (concussion) uncertain to play again this season, it makes sense that the Jaguars are looking to add depth at quarterback.

  • John Wolford: Released by Tampa Bay

    Wolford was released by the Buccaneers on Tuesday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

    The quarterback suffered a rib injury during the preseason and was unable to beat out Kyle Trask for the backup role behind Baker Mayfield. Wolford last saw regular-season action in 2022 with the Rams.

  • Buccaneers' John Wolford: Gets over injury

    Wolford (ribs) practiced Monday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Wolford left in the fourth quarter of Saturday's exhibition loss to the Jaguars after taking a hit that resulted in a roughing the passer call. The Wake Forest product's return to the field Monday will help keep him in the running for the No. 2 role at QB behind Baker Mayfield, although Kyle Trask is considered the frontrunner for the job.

  • Buccaneers' John Wolford: Hurts ribs in second preseason game

    Wolford suffered a rib injury during Saturday's exhibition loss to Jacksonville, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Baker Mayfield didn't suit up for the contest, leaving Kyle Trask to play the first half and Wolford to handle the second. The latter couldn't complete the fourth quarter, as he was injured on a roughing the passer penalty with less than two minutes remaining, resulting in Trask reentering the game. Head coach Todd Bowles said after the matchup that he isn't sure how severe Wolford's injury is, but if the QB needs to miss the team's final exhibition game next Friday against Miami, his outside chance of unseating Trask for the backup role behind Mayfield could come to an end. As it is, Trask had the better performance Saturday, completing 12 of 19 pass attempts for 108 yards and a touchdown and adding one rush for four yards while Wolford completed just seven of 14 passes for 52 yards with no scores.

  • Buccaneers' John Wolford: Still has shot at No. 2 job

    Wolford remains in a close competition with Kyle Trask for the No. 2 quarterback job, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

    Wolford was the presumptive No. 3 quarterback heading into the Buccaneers' first preseason contest, but the veteran journeyman played well during the second half of the exhibition win over the Bengals on Saturday night. Wolford spent time on the Buccaneers' practice squad in 2023, but with both him and Trask starting from scratch in new coordinator Liam Coen's scheme this offseason, it seems Wolford is doing enough to give himself a chance at the primary backup job.

  • Buccaneers' John Wolford: Strong work in second half Saturday

    Wolford completed 12 of 18 passes for 131 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the Buccaneers' 17-14 preseason win over the Bengals on Saturday night. He also rushed twice for four yards.

    Wolford played the entire second half after Kyle Trask started and handled the first two quarters. Wolford led the Buccaneers to a field goal on his first drive and subsequently helmed an eight-play, 69-yard march late in the fourth quarter that culminated in a Ramon Jefferson three-yard go-ahead touchdown run. Wolford again profiles as a serviceable No. 3 quarterback heading into the 2024 campaign, and he should continue to see a solid allotment of playing time across the final two preseason games.
