Buccaneers' Vita Vea: Agrees to one-year extension with Bucs
Vea (back) and the Buccaneers reached an agreement on a one-year, $30 million extension Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Vea, who is now under contract with the team through the 2027 season, made a trade request at the start of training camp, likely eyeing his AAV at the time ($17.75 million, or 19th most among interior defensive linemen). Per Jenna Laine of ESPN.com, Tampa Bay had no plans to trade Vea, though teams had checked in on the situation multiple times over the last few weeks, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. With Vea's new deal in place, the new money value of $30 million would rank fifth in AAV at his position in the NFL.

Despite calls from the Bills, Bears, 49ers and more, the Buccaneers remain steadfast that they will not trade Vea. The star nose tackle has expressed his wishes to leave the organization, and with many suitors interested, there is still a chance the organization changes its mind. It appears the team is still trying to organize a new deal with Vea, but it is unclear if talks have progressed at all.
