The Buccaneers have told Ronde Barber that they want him back for a 16th season.
The cornerback still needs more time to consider whether or not he'll retire.
"Ronde, Coach [Greg] Schiano and I have had several meetings. He knows we'd like him back for a 16th season," general manager Mark Dominik said.
"We will respect his wish for a little more time to make his decision and look forward to speaking with him again soon."
