Raymond James Stadium where the Buccaneers have played their home games since 1998

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a professional American football team based in Tampa, Florida. The Buccaneers compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member of the National Football Conference (NFC) South Division.[1] The team has played their home games at Raymond James Stadium since 1998.[2] Founded in 1974 by Hugh Culverhouse, the Buccaneers joined the NFL in 1976 as members of the AFC West.[3][4] The following year, they moved to the NFC Central, where they stayed until division realignment in 2002, at which point they were moved to the NFC South.[5] The Tampa Bay expansion franchise was originally awarded to Tom McCloskey, a construction company owner from Philadelphia.[6] They were purchased by Malcolm Glazer in 1995 for $192 million, following Culverhouse's death, and is currently owned by the Glazer family.[7][8]

The franchise has made it to the Super Bowl twice, first in Super Bowl XXXVII during the 2002 season and again in Super Bowl LV during the 2020 season. The Buccaneers are one of two NFL franchises to have at least two Super Bowl appearances without a loss, along with the Baltimore Ravens.[9] Until the 2008 Detroit Lions went winless, the Buccaneers were the only team in the Super Bowl-era to go winless for a whole season, doing so in the 1976 season in which they entered the league.

As of the end of the 2024 season, the Buccaneers have an all-time record of 317 wins, 457 losses, and a single tie in the regular season, with an additional 12 wins and 13 losses in the playoffs. The team made the playoffs 13 times and won their division eight times, three of which were as a part of the NFC Central and five as part of the NFC South.
