Perhaps Bradley McDougald’s time in Tampa is done.

Perhaps.

Today, the Bucs will sign safety J.J. Wilcox. The news comes from the dean of Tampa Bay sports radio, Joe’s friend Steve Duemig of WDAE-AM 620. He dropped the word this morning via Twitter.

The former Cowboys third-round pick in 2013 lost his starting job last season. Wilcox, 26, has played both free safety and strong safety in what is a clone of Lovie Smith’s defense. He has been durable with 38 career starts, including four last season.

Duemig wrote on Twitter that leaving the “politics” of the Cowboys should be a difference-maker for Wilcox.

As for McDougald, the Bucs’ best and most consistent safety, he remains unsigned. It seems he’s looking for a serious payday and isn’t finding it. Joe suspects McDougald still would be welcomed back at the right price.
