Rakeem Nunez-Roches is heading back to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After spending the last three seasons with the New York Giants, the 11-year veteran is signing with Tampa Bay, where he played from 2018-2022.

Known as “Nacho”, the 2015 sixth-round pick of the Kansas City Chiefs, played in 40 games for the Giants with 20 starts after signing as a free agent before the 2023 season.

Despite head coach John Harbaugh’s stated desire to build the best defensive line in the NFL, the giants have done very little so far this offseason on the defensive interior.

Nunez-Roches is now a Buccaneer. D.J. Davidson signed recently with the Washington Commanders.

The only addition the Giants have thus far made on the defensive line is the signing of journeyman Sam Roberts, who has played in 20 games over the last four seasons with the New England Patriots, Carolina Panthers, and Atlanta Falcons.

The Giants figure to continue bargain-hunting in free agency, and to look add to the line in the upcoming 2026 NFL Draft.
