Blankenship is locked into a heated training camp/preseason competition with Chase McLaughlin entering the midpoint of the exhibition slate. The Georgia product did not kick again last season following a Week 1 release by the Colts, and he owns career 83.9 percent and 93.1 percent success rates on field-goal attempts and extra-point tries, respectively. If Blankenship does win the job battle, he'll be attached to a Buccaneers offense with some solid pass-catching playmakers but questionable quarterback play, a recipe that could lead to plenty of field-goal opportunities.
