Earlier this offseason, Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Greg Schiano said that he hoped to bring in competition at the quarterback position. This led many to speculate that Schiano isn’t sold on his current starter – Josh Freeman – but the coach has flip-flopped since his initial comments. However, people close to Freeman told Stephen F. Holder of The Tampa Bay Times that “just about everyone at One Buc Place seems onboard” with the team’s current starter, except Schiano.

There has been talk of the team being divided on the merit of moving forward with Freeman as their unopposed starter. General manager Mark Dominik – who selected Freeman in the first-round of the 2009 NFL Draft – is said to be married to the signal caller. However, Schiano – who joined the team after Freeman was drafted – doesn’t appear to be opposed to moving forward with another quarterback.

While the Bucs were reportedly somewhat courting available players such as Carson Palmer and Matt Cassel this offseason, they haven’t added anyone that’s seriously going to push Freeman for the starting spot. At this point, it appears Freeman will be the team’s regular, whether Schiano likes it or not.
