Conte, who posted 69 tackles and two interceptions in 2016, is a potential candidate to re-sign with the Bucs, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Bucs have expressed an interest in having the unrestricted free agent return, but they may wait to see what plays out with their attempts to bring fellow safety Bradley McDougald back to the fold first. Conte notched the first pick-six of his career last season and has been reasonably effective against both the run and pass through his two-year Tampa tenure, racking up a combined 148 stops (118 solo), 11 passes defensed, four interceptions, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery over 28 games.
