Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2026 schedule rumors

Rumor: Buccaneers likely to play on the road in Week 1

Fox Sports’ Greg Auman did some digging and discovered that Bruno Mars will be performing at Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, September 13.

That happens to be the opening Sunday of the 2026 NFL season, so the Bucs are almost certainly going to be sent on the road for the season opener.

Rumor: Ed Sheeran will impact the Buccaneers in Week 9

Auman reports that like Mars in Week 1, Ed Sheeran plays at Raymond James Stadium in Week 9. Sheeran’s concert takes place on Saturday night, so there are three options for the Buccaneers: travel for a road game, host a Thursday Night Football games or host a Monday Night Football game.
