The Tampa Bay Buccaneers dominated the Tennessee Titans in a lopsided 29-7 preseason victory Saturday night, controlling the clock and capitalizing on a barrage of Titans turnovers. Tennessee's offense unraveled early, with quarterbacks combining for three interceptions—including two from Tim Boyle—and a paltry 3.6 yards per play. The Bucs' defense feasted on the mistakes, with Roman Parodie returning one pick 39 yards for a touchdown while Nick Jackson and Tyrek Funderburk added interceptions of their own. Tampa Bay's ground game wore down Tennessee, racking up 178 rushing yards behind Owen Wright's 87-yard performance and Sean Tucker's 50-yard outing, including a touchdown.
Kyle Trask led the Bucs' efficient passing attack, completing 12 of 16 attempts for 129 yards before giving way to backups, while Tampa Bay's defense stifled Tennessee's receivers—holding Calvin Ridley to just three catches for 50 yards. The Titans' only score came on Tony Pollard's 5-yard rush, but it was far too little against a Bucs squad that converted 7 of 16 third downs and dominated time of possession (34:59 to 25:01). The win gives Tampa Bay momentum heading into the regular season, while Tennessee faces pressing questions about its offensive consistency.
