The 23-year-old was in a rotational role throughout the season, finishing with just 18 tackles, including 1.5 sacks, and one forced fumble across 307 snaps over 17 regular-season games.

Refining game going into Year 2
Braswell has looked quicker in training camp after some offseason weight loss and is also working on several other aspects of his game, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Head coach Todd Bowles noted Thursday that Braswell's weight loss was intended to translate to the field in terms of improved quickness, and that strategy seems to have worked. Braswell is "coming off the ball a lot faster" than last season according to Bowles, who also said he sees the 2024 second-round pick starting to let his talent take over due to increased comfort level with the defensive scheme. Braswell spent the offseason working with fellow pass rusher Yaya Diaby, and Brianna Dix of the team's official site reports Braswell has also been focusing on his sharpening his run defense and pass coverage drops.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Braswell arrives in Tampa Bay via a second-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft following an impressive career at Alabama. He could eventually prove an effective replacement for the departed Shaquil Barrett, considering his 4.6 speed and 10.5 sacks over his last two college campaigns. As a rookie, Braswell projects to serve as a key rotational piece of a revamped Buccaneers linebackers corps, one that has plenty of snaps available after the offseason departures of Barrett and Devin White.
