It's April 4th, welcome in. This is NFL News Today, where football meets AI. Defensive lineman Raquim Nacho, Nunez, Roches is heading back to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a one-year deal. That's the same squad where he won Super Bowl 55 back in 2021. Nacho spent the last three seasons with the New York Giants, giving them solid depth of front after signing as a free agent. Earlier this week, the news dropped that he's reuniting with Tampa, where he first played from 2018 to 2020. Before that, he was a sixth-round pick by the Kansas City Chiefs out of Southern Mississippi in 2015, logging three years there. With the Giants, Nacho suited up for 40 games, starting 24 and racked up 5.56, 101 tackles, and 11 quarterback hits. His top year came in 2024, with career highs and tackles at 52 and 6 QB hits, though an ankle injury sidelined him late last. Season after nine games and three sex.
The Giants aren't chasing him back, focusing instead on rebuilding their line around a healthy Dexter Lawrence II, plus guys like Roy, Robertson Harris, Darius Alexander, Chauncey Goldston, and Elijah Chapman. They let fifth-rounder DJ Davidson walk to Washington and just added veteran Sam Roberts. Meanwhile, New York's eyeing more youth and possibly Shelby Harris after the draft to dodge compic issues. Nacho's move shakes up both fronts, but Tampa gets that Super Bowl vibe back in the mix.
