Daniels wins Bucs backup QB job over Browning and Bazelak after strong camp.

Undrafted free agent from Kansas earned the primary backup quarterback role with Tampa Bay after impressing throughout training camp and preseason. Daniels competed against Jake Browning and Connor Bazelak for the backup spot; the Bucs cut Bazelak on Saturday and released Browning on Sunday to move forward with Daniels. Coach Todd Bowles praised his overall operation and decision-making, noting "it's not really the completions, it's the overall operation." Daniels completed 19-of-29 for 182 yards and two touchdowns (one rushing) across two preseason victories, demonstrating enough to secure the backup role behind Baker Mayfield.
