Cade Otton, a tight end with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, had a great season last year and saved his best for the postseason. Otton led the Bucs in receptions during their two games during the postseason run, finishing with 13 in total. He may be in line for a bigger role in the offense as he enters his third season with the organization.
Otton was one of the three “low-key” Bucs that Pewter Report beat writer Scott Reynolds recently noted for having excellent training camps and preseason play. Reynolds said that Otton has become a more well-rounded player for the offense who can contribute in both the run and pass game, in addition to his post-season success. Regardless of your offensive position, one of the easiest methods to guarantee you receive more playing time is to demonstrate your skill as a blocker.
In his debut season alongside quarterback Baker Mayfield, Otton ended with 47 receptions for 455 yards and four touchdowns. Reynolds claims that throughout this year’s camp, the two have truly gotten along, which could help Otton contribute even more to the Bucs offense. There should be plenty of opportunities for Otton to have an impact underneath over the middle, given that defenses are constantly concerned about Mike Evans and Chris Godwin on the outside.
Reynolds also mentioned offensive lineman Luke Goedeke and linebacker SirVocea Dennis, describing them as “low-key” guys who have had strong training camps and who fans should watch during the regular season. In addition to Otton.
