In an effort to get under the salary cap the Bucs have created more cap room. According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network Tampa Bay has reworked the contract of wide receiver Russell Gage. The Bucs are moving his $10 million salary cap hit to $7 million, but making it fully guaranteed. Gage will also have the chance to earn many incentives to reach the original total this season.

This has helped the Bucs become salary cap compliant. They needed to do by Wednesday, March 15, which is the start of the league year.
