A short list of teams that the Bucs could potentially play were the Los Angeles Rams, Seattle Seahawks, Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals and the Kansas City Chiefs. An official announcement came on Tampa Bay's opponent via Good Morning Football on Wednesday morning. The Buccaneers will match up with the Seattle Seahawks in Germany.
The game will take place on November 13th, which lands during week 10 of the NFL season.
The Buccaneers are expected to have a nice fanbase in Germany, mainly thanks to QB Tom Brady. The game may not be as highly touted as once imagined now that the Seahawks have a much different team headed into the 2022 NFL season - mainly because of the fact that their former QB, Russell Wilson, plays for the Denver Broncos.
