Modest numbers in '24
Gaines provided 17 tackles (seven solo), including 1.0 sacks, across 15 regular-season games in 2024.
ANALYSIS
The veteran played his fewest snaps (374) since the 2020 season, with that total also representing an 81-play downturn from his 2023 Buccaneers debut campaign. Gaines primarily served in a rotational role on the defensive front, and he went into the offseason on the heels of his most productive game of 2024 by recording six tackles over 26 snaps in the wild-card loss to the Commanders. Given Gaines' minor role and the fact he'll be 29 by the time next season begins, it's likely Tampa Bay lets him explore his options when he hits the open market at the start of the new league year.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Gaines arrived via free agency this offseason from the Rams and could prove to be a prudent addition to the Buccaneers' interior defensive line rotation. The fifth-year pro, who's completing a recovery from January biceps surgery, amassed 91 tackles and 8.5 sacks the last two years alone for Los Angeles, above-average numbers from a defensive tackle. Gaines projects to serve as Vita Vea's backup, but with over 700 defensive snaps logged in both of the last two seasons, he could be entrusted with a robust rotational role.
