The Bucs will release Trask, per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, after he goes to IR with a shoulder injury and then reaches a settlement. The Bucs will slot Teddy Bridgewater into the backup role, in that event — the team is also likely to retain quarterback Connor Bazelak on the practice squad, leaving Trask the odd man out.

According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers plan to release quarterback Kyle Trask, who spent the first four years of his career as the team's backup. Per the report, Tampa Bay will put Trask on IR for a shoulder injury before granting him his release.
