Undrafted rookie Jack Pyburn, who dazzled in his first preseason game with the Buccaneers, may be heading back to college thanks to a Louisiana court ruling that could grant over thirty athletes an extra year of eligibility. After three seasons at Florida and one at LSU, Pyburn would need to forfeit his NFL contract and signing bonus to return — a steep price for a player once seen as a late-round draft pick. With his special teams prowess and run-stopping ability already earning him praise from coach Todd Bowles, Pyburn’s potential return adds intrigue to Tampa Bay’s roster as they prepare for their next preseason clash. Meanwhile, this legal shift reflects a broader trend of athletes challenging NCAA rules for financial gain — like Ole Miss QB Trinidad Chambliss, who’s expected to earn millions playing college ball instead of being drafted. Pyburn’s decision could reshape his NFL future while keeping the Bucs’ eyes on his every move.
