Bucs' Calijah Kancey returns to Pitt during the offseason
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and their players have been very busy this offseason. From Pro Bowls to NFL Honors, they have been all over and visible in a variety of ways. For some players, though, this offseason has been nothing but focusing on building towards a successful 2025 season, and that includes Calijah Kancey.
The former Bucs first-round pick in 2023, Kancey is coming off a 2024 season that saw him come out of the gates slow due to injury. However, he ended the season on a tear, finishing with 7.5 sacks, up from his 4.5 during his rookie season, and he achieved that with fewer games played.
Kancey posted on social media that he was back at Pittsburgh, where he attended college and worked out in the team's facility. This was a common practice of future Hall of Famer Aaron Donald.

Kancey will be pivotal to the Bucs success in 2025. Todd Bowles has shown that he can develop defensive linemen over the length of his career and the former Pitt Panther is proving to be no different.
