Report: Buccaneers Expected to Release Donavan Smith

Per Reynolds,

“The Bucs are expected to release left tackle Donovan Smith by March 15 in a move to clear some salary cap space and are exploring moving Tristan Wirfs, a two-time Pro Bowl right tackle, to the left side to replace him. Smith, who has been a starter since being drafted in the second round in 2015, has started 124 games in Tampa Bay. He turns 30 years old in June and has a cap value of $17.9 million this year, according to OverTheCap.com.

The releasing of Smith will free-up roughly $10 million ($9.95 million) in cap space for the Buccaneers.
