The Tampa Bay Buccaneers took Ohio State football's Emeka Egbuka in the first round, and they might have drafted their next star receiver.

Teddy Bridgewater is nearing a return to the NFL with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht said Bridgewater is visiting the team and the Bucs plan to sign him. The Buccaneers will be the eighth team in 12 seasons for the 32-year-old Bridgewater.

Bridgewater's previous NFL career took a turn after a major knee injury in 2016, but he battled back to start for the Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos. He later had stints with the New York Jets, New Orleans Saints, Miami Dolphins and Detroit. "He's a pro pro and (coach) Todd (Bowles) has a good relationship with him," Licht said.
