Bucs LB inserted into trade idea with the New York Jets

By admin — In News — July 15, 2026

   ​The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have long lived and died on the hill that their linebackers have built over the years. When their defense has been dominant, the play of their linebackers has led the charge. However, as we saw in 2025, when they do not have the depth or high-level play, they are at the mercy of opposing offenses.Now, going into 2026, the team has revamped its group after the retirement of Lavonte David. They brought in Alex Anzalone in free agency and drafted Josiah Trotter. Both of them should bring new energy to the position, but it leaves SirVocea Dennis out in the cold.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThat is where a trade now makes sense for the young linebacker.Bleacher Report’s Moe Moton recently wrote up one trade every NFL team should consider making and he included Dennis in one. He hinted that a fresh start for him could make sense in New York with the Jets in a linebacker room led by Demario Davis.He writes, “At 37, Demario Davis is a starting-caliber linebacker on a two-year deal. The Jets must consider the future at the position—someone to pair alongside Jamien Sherwood. Gang Green may be able to bring in Dennis for a late-round pick. He could be the odd man out after the Buccaneers overhauled their linebacker group. As a first-time, full-time starter last year, he logged 101 tackles (10 for loss) and three sacks. The 26-year-old needs to sharpen his coverage technique, but he still has some upside.”Dennis being in Aaron Glenn’s defense could be exactly what the doctor ordered for both parties. Glenn needs a dynamic libebvacker who can also present pass-rush upside, and Dennis needs a reset on things. He will not get a chance to do that in Tampa Bay with the new faces in place, so getting the extra picks helps all parties.This article originally appeared on Bucs Wire: Bucs LB inserted into trade idea with the New York Jets
