NFL American football team the Tampa Bay Buccaneers has renewed its commercial partnership with regional newspaper the Tampa Tribune.
The multi-year sponsorship deal retains the Tribune’s position among the franchise’s elite Pewter Partner rung of partners, which also includes automotive retailer Southern Ford Dealers and Bay Area financial group Community Bank.
Within that setup, the Tampa Tribune will continue to be the official newspaper of the Buccaneers.
The newspaper shares a long-standing historical association with the team, dating back to then-editor Tom McEwan’s role in helping to bring an NFL franchise to the area in the 1970s.
