TAMPA, Fla. — For Ravens center Jeremy Zuttah, it was a strange feeling to return to Tampa for the first time since being traded to the Ravens in March in exchange for a fifth-round draft pick in 2015.
Zuttah had played and started for the Buccaneers for six years before the offseason transaction.
“There was a time when I was bitter,” said Zuttah, who was signed to a five-year, $18 million contract extension after the trade. “Once I got to Baltimore, that was out the window. I’m just happy to be a part of this organization.”
On Sunday, Zuttah had to adjust to lining up on the opponents’ sideline and getting dressed in the visitors’ locker room.
