Ayden Garnes acknowledges he isn’t ready for a starting role with Buccaneers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie cornerback Ayden Garnes, who has made a significant impact during preseason, stated he is not currently in a position to start. Garnes, an undrafted free agent, showcased his skills with a notable 47-yard interception return for a touchdown in a preseason matchup against the New York Jets. His performance and dedication have solidified his place on the 53-man roster, despite existing competition from other young cornerbacks like Zyon McCollum and Jacob Parrish. Garnes is focused on earning quality playing time rather than a starting role. With final roster cuts approaching, he aims to continue his development as a valuable contributor to the team.
