Kyle Trask - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Joins Falcons' practice squad Trask signed with the Falcons' practice squad Wednesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

Trask is now expected to operate as the Falcons' emergency third quarterback, playing behind Kirk Cousins and Easton Stick.

Cut by Bucs Trask (shoulder) was released by Tampa Bay on Tuesday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Impact Trask lost the backup quarterback battle to Teddy Bridgewater. The 2021 second-round pick's tenure with the Buccaneers comes to an end after four years, during which Trask didn't log a regular-season start. Trask has been among the numerous NFL underachievers from Florida's prolific 2020 NCAA offense, which also included 2021 first-round picks Kyle Pitts and Kadarius Toney. With his shoulder healed, Trask will look to latch on with another team, though it will likely be on a practice squad.

Bucs reportedly moving on The Buccaneers plan to move on from Trask, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Per Fowler, Trask -- who is dealing with a minor shoulder issue -- is in line to be cut with an injury designation and then revert to IR. Once that happens, the QB will look to reach an injury settlement with the Buccaneers, which would allow him to sign elsewhere once he's healthy. As a result of the looming move, Teddy Bridgewater is set to serve as Baker Mayfield's top backup ahead of Week 1.

Sharp but risk-averse Saturday Trask started Saturday night's 23-19 preseason loss to the Bills and completed 13 of 17 passes for 93 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions while adding one rush for four y...

Impact Trask played the entire first half with Teddy Bridgewater sidelined due to an illness. As his final line indicates, Trask stuck to high-percentage throws for the most part, and he capped off his performance with a one-yard TD pass to Tez Johnson with under a minute remaining in the first half. Despite Bridgewater having played in just one preseason game and Trask having put together a solid exhibition slate overall, there's still a possibility the latter is on the outside looking in come final roster cuts.

Starting in preseason finale Trask will start in Saturday's preseason game against the Bills, Rock reports.

Impact With Baker Mayfield not playing, Trask will run with the offense to begin Saturday's exhibition contest while Teddy Bridgewater serves as the QB2. Trask and Bridgewater are battling for the Bucs' backup duties, but it was the latter whom showed more poise during the Bucs' preseason game against the Steelers this past Saturday. Trask played better in Tampa Bay's first preseason contest against the Titans, but the gap is quite narrow between the two quarterbacks heading into this Saturday's preseason finale.

Poor showing in second exhibition Trask completed three of 10 passes for 19 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the Buccaneers' 17-14 preseason win over the Steelers on Saturday night. He also rushed once...

Impact Trask entered the game after starter Teddy Bridgewater, who he's trying to hold off for the No. 2 quarterback job. While Bridgewater looked impressive -- especially for a player who signed about halfway through training camp -- while leading the Buccaneers to two touchdowns, Trask's performance over his four possessions was anything but. Tampa Bay's offense netted all of 44 yards across that quartet of drives, with each culminating in punts. Trask did put together a much better performance in the preseason opener against the Titans, when he completed 12 of 16 passes for 129 yards; however, the fact Bridgewater has proven a quick study in coordinator Josh Grizzard's offense presumably makes the gap between both players close considerably, and Saturday night's preseason finale against the Bills could serve as the platform for both players to cement their fate come roster cutdowns.
