Vita Vea Requests Trade After Stalled Contract Negotiations

Two-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Vita Vea has officially requested a trade from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers following failed contract extension talks. Entering the final year of his deal with an $18 million salary, Vea previously held out of minicamp. Reports indicate he has a short geographic wish list for a potential destination, with the 49ers, Chargers, Rams, and Raiders identified as teams on alert. His agent, Collin Roberts, confirmed the request as trade speculation intensifies.
