Buccaneers' Jacob Parrish: Snags first INT of NFL career
Rotowire
Parrish logged three tackles (two solo) and an interception during the Buccaneers' 44-32 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
Parrish was on the other end of an ill-advised pass from Josh Allen early in the first quarter, which set up the Buccaneers deep in opposing territory and ultimately led to a 23-yard field goal from Chase McLaughlin four plays later. It was Parrish's first interception of his NFL career, and the rookie third-rounder is up to 44 tackles (29 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and four pass defenses through 10 regular-season games.

Buccaneers' Jacob Parrish: Racks up tackles in win
Rotowire
Parrish recorded nine tackles (five solo) in the Buccaneers' 38-35 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.
Parrish played on 97 percent of the snaps -- 59 total -- and was highly active during his time on the field, tying Lavonte David for the team lead in tackles. The rookie third-round pick set a new career high in stops with his tally, which was partly the result of the Buccaneers being without Jamel Dean (hip), Benjamin Morrison (hamstring) and Christian Izien (quadriceps) in the secondary for Sunday's contest. Parrish could fill an elevated role again in a Week 6 home matchup against the 49ers if some or all of the aforementioned trio remains sidelined.

Parrish, whom the Buccaneers selected in the third round out of Kansas State in the 2025 NFL Draft, has worked his way into the Buccaneers' nickel rotation and is being utilized as a blitzer as well, Brianna Dix of the team's official site reports.
There's been no shortage of accolades for Parrish, who played both left cornerback and in the nickel on third down in college while often working against some of the country's top receivers. Parrish recorded 23 pass defenses, including five interceptions, during his time at Kansas State, and he's been showing his closing pursuit on blitzes during camp. Additionally, Greg Auman of FOX Sports reports head coach Todd Bowles has taken note of how Parrish has shown impressively quick adaptability to the defensive scheme. "He's been good since the first day he got here. You correct him very little, and that's a scary thing, especially for me," Bowles said. "You tell him something one time and he's got it. He goes outside, goes inside, plays special teams."
