Bucs Lose Offensive Line Depth with Heck's Departure

About this episode

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have lost a versatile offensive lineman, Charlie Heck, to the Miami Dolphins. Heck, who played a rotational role last season, started at right tackle and later switched to backup left tackle. Despite his limited snaps, he provided solid backup support and pass protection. With Hecks departure, the Buccaneers will rely on their current group and potentially explore free agents or draft picks to strengthen their offensive line.

For the NFL, it's March 18th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. The Tepebe Buccaneers have lost some depth on their offensive line. Veteran Tackle Charlie Heck, who played for them last season, just signed with the Miami Dolphins. He joined Tepebe on a one-year deal before the 2025 season. Heck started a right tackle for the Bucks from Week 2 through Week 8. After that, he shifted to Back Up Left Tackle and saw a limited action. Overall, he logged 473 offensive snaps in a rotational row. His versatility helped the team during a tough year with several Lyman injuries. He could fill in and multiple spots, providing solid backup support when needed. In pass protection, Heck allowed 32 pressures over 289 snaps. That included 3-sacks and 29 hurries, earning him a pass blocking grade of 48.0 from pro football focus. Now with Heck gone, the Buccaneers will lean on their current group for depth.

They might also target free agents or draft picks to bolster the line moving forward. D&N is brought to you by our sponsor link in the description. Relax deeper, reset faster, comfort you can hear. S-O-L-I, solelypillow.com.
