The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are in for a potentially transitional offseason this year. They have 27 players set to hit free agency. Not all of them will be re-signed. Some of the veteran players are more likely to be let go by the organization. Leonard Fournette has a good chance of being one of the players the Buccaneers let go of because of their younger depth in the running back position.
#4 - Chandler Jones
Chandler Jones requested to be traded prior to the 2021 NFL season, but the Arizona Cardinals decided to hang on to him. The two sides have been unable to come together on a contract extension, while JJ Watt just received a big one from the organization. These are all signs that Chandler Jones will hit the free agent market in the 2022 NFL offseason.
#5 - Stephon Gilmore
Stephon Gilmore is likely looking for a huge contract this year, while the Carolina Panthers don't have much spending money for the 2022 offseason. The Panthers are also fairly deep with youth on their defensive back roster, including players such as CJ Henderson and newly drafted rookie Jaycee Horn. It appears likely the Panthers will move on from Gilmore, despite trading for him during the 2021 season.
