Tez Johnson was the second wideout the Buccaneers drafted in 2025, behind Emeka Egbuka, who was taken in Round 1.

Johnson will add a different type of dynamism to Tampa Bay's offense next season. He will serve as another weapon for Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield.

The Buccaneers already had the likes of Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, Trey Palmer and Sterling Shepard in their wide receivers' corps. With rookies Egbuka and Johnson, Tampa Bay boasts an excellent group of receivers who can make a big difference in the team's offense.
