The NFL and the NFLPA* finally got to pop champagne Monday as they agreed to a new 10-year labor agreement, ending the contentious, summer-long league lockout. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will immediately get back to work and begin their 2011-2012 season by opening training camp this Thursday, with the first practice taking place on Friday.
For the third consecutive season, training camp will be held at One Buc Place in downtown Tampa after having returned to the Bay Area from Disney, in Orlando two seasons ago. Tampa Bay fans will be able to watch their favorite team practice nine times during this years camp. Practice is always free to the public, and no tickets are required for admission.
The full schedule of open practices is below, and may be subject to change.
