Riley Dixon Joins Buccaneers on Two-Year Deal

Riley Dixon, a veteran punter, has agreed to a two-year, $6 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, leaving the Denver Broncos in need of a new punter. Dixon, who was initially drafted by the Broncos in 2016, has played for several teams, including the Giants and Rams, before returning to Denver. His departure is part of a broader effort by the Broncos to revamp their special teams under new coordinator Darren Rizzi. The Buccaneers, having struggled with punting consistency, hope Dixon will bring stability to the position. Meanwhile, the Broncos are exploring potential replacements, including Ryan Stonehouse, a restricted free agent from the Titans known for his record-setting 53.1 yards per punt. The Broncos also re-signed long snapper Mitch Fraboni and kept kicker Wil Lutz under contract as part of their special teams reorganization.
