Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Vita Vea has requested a trade, according to his agent. The request comes after unsuccessful negotiations for a contract extension.
Vea, a key player on the Buccaneers' defense, has asked the team to facilitate a trade, his agent, Collin Roberts, told ESPN on Monday. The decision follows failed attempts to reach an agreement on a new contract with the organization.
The specific details of the stalled negotiations were not disclosed by ESPN, but Roberts’ statement indicates that Vea is seeking a long-term deal elsewhere. No potential landing spots for Vea have been reported at this time.
Vea has been a consistent performer for Tampa Bay since being drafted in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft. His departure would leave a significant hole in the Buccaneers’ defensive line.
