The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are moving Jermaine Phillips back to safety

With Tanard Jackson out for the first four games of the season due to suspension the Bucs have decided to move Jermaine Phillips back to safety instead of starting Will Allen there.  That is a very smart move.  The 30-year old Phillips played in 11 games (all starts) for the Bucs last season and he made 59 tackles, defensed 5 passes and had 3 interceptions.  The Bucs were converting him into a outside linebacker because of his tackling ability but they have a need right now at safety so that’s where he will start the season.
