Buccaneers' Vita Vea: Career-high sack total in '24
Vea finished the 2024 regular season with 42 tackles (27 solo), including 7.0 sacks, and one defensed pass across 16 games.
The veteran defensive tackle added a solo tackle over 47 snaps in the Buccaneers' wild-card loss to the Commanders. During the regular season, Vea continued to profile as one of the best interior pass rushers in the league, setting a new career high in sacks while exceeding 5.0 sacks for the third straight season. Vea's tackle total was also the second highest of his career, and unless the Buccaneers opt to exercise an out in his deal this offseason at a dead cap hit of $11.5 million, Vea is due to play out the 2025 season in his usual capacity on the interior of Tampa Bay's defensive front.

Buccaneers' Vita Vea: Sets new career best in sacks
Vea recorded three tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the Buccaneers' 27-19 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Vea finished the 2024 season with a new career high in sacks (7.0) thanks to Sunday's takedown of Spencer Rattler. The 2018 first-round pick also compiled the second-highest tackle total (42) of his career, and Vea figures to continue serving a critical pass-rushing and run-stuffing presence when the Buccaneers welcome in the Commanders for Sunday night's wild-card showdown.
