The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a gem at receiver for the future. The Bucs drafted receiver Emeka Egbuka in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Ohio State. Egbuka recently won a national championship with the Buckeyes and goes from one Bucs team to another.

No rookie has started the 2025 season better than he has. Egbuka has scored three times in two games and has been one of Baker Mayfield 's top options. So far in two games, the rookie has eight catches, 96 yards, three TDs, and a 12.0 yards per catch average. In the season opener against the Atlanta Falcons, he caught two touchdowns, including the game-winner with 59 seconds left in the game.
