Bucs Offense Struggles, Andrew Luck Retires, Gators Win Sloppy Game, Rays Split With Orioles and Lightning Sign Maroon Aug 26, 2019

Show notes

Rick Stroud breaks down the Bucs 3rd preseason game for the Buccaneers as the offense struggles with Jameis Winston sacked 5 times, Bucs allow 7 overall and they lose QB Blaine Gabbert to injury meaning Ryan Griffin will be the #2 quarterback when the season opens and Vincent Testaverde is signed to play this Thursday in Dallas. Colts quarterback Andrew Luck retires from football at age 29 and shocks the NFL, you'll hear from Bucs QB coach Clyde Christensen on Luck and the loss this is for football. The Florida Gators win a game they probably should have lost to Miami in a sloppy game where both offensive lines struggled, the Rays lose 2 in a row to split their 4-game series with Baltimore and now have Houston up next, and the Lightning sign Pat Maroon from the Blues to add a player with some size and a Stanley Cup ring.
