Ndamukong Suh said Monday that he intends to continue his NFL career in 2022, but the defensive tackle doesn't expect to return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

"It looks like the Bucs are out of the picture," Suh said on "NFL Live," according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The 35-year-old suggested on Tuesday that he'd like to play for the Las Vegas Raiders.

Tampa Bay signaled it was moving on from Suh by signing Akiem Hicks to a one-year deal in June, bolstering a unit containing Vita Vea, William Gholston, and rookie Logan Hall.

Suh seemingly hasn't been linked to any teams at this stage of the offseason.

The five-time Pro Bowler played in all 49 regular-season games in three seasons in Tampa Bay, racking up 14.5 sacks and 112 total tackles. He was a key part of the Bucs' defense during the club's Super Bowl run in 2020.
