Russell Gage News
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and wide receiver Russell Gage reworked his contract on Sunday to create additional salary cap space for 2023, taking his base salary this year from $10 million to $7 million, which is now fully guaranteed. Gage also has a chance to hit reasonable incentives and earn it back, according to sources. The 27-year-old was expected to break out with Tampa in 2022, but that was before they signed veteran Julio Jones last summer. Although he had a career-high five touchdowns, Gage had a limited role in the Bucs' pass-happy offense, catching 51 of his 70 targets for 426 yards in 13 regular season games (four starts). With quarterback Tom Brady now retired, Gage will most likely fade into obscurity in fantasy.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that wide receiver Russell Gage (concussion) was expected to be released from the hospital on Tuesday. He is dealing with a concussion but "his neck is fine and right now he has all his extremities moving." Gage suffered a scary injury in the fourth quarter of Monday night's wild-card loss to the Dallas Cowboys and had to be carted off the field after being put on a backboard. The 26-year-old should be fully recovered from his head injury to be able to take part in offseason workouts. Julio Jones' arrival scrapped any breakout plans for Gage in his first year in Tampa, and he finished with a disappointing 51 catches for 426 yards and a career-high five touchdowns on 70 targets in 13 regular season games (four starts).
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (concussion, neck) has movement in all of his extremities after he suffered a scary neck injury and concussion in the fourth quarter of the team's 31-14 wild-card loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Gage was taken to the hospital on Monday night, where he remained overnight for additional testing and observation. He will continue to undergo additional testing on Tuesday, and we will provide any further updates on his condition. With the Buccaneers season now over, Gage will be able to rest and recover, but it remains to be seen how long it will be before he is back in football shape. In his first year in Tampa, the 26-year-old compiled 51 catches for 426 yards and a career-high five touchdowns in 13 games (four starts). Gage caught just two of eight targets for 10 yards in Monday's loss.
