Bucs add another veteran cornerback in NFL Free Agency

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are continuing their offseason approach of rebuilding their cornerback depth, with their second new addition, Kemon Hall. While not a headline-grabbing move, Hall’s signing adds another competitive piece to a secondary that remains unsettled heading into the 2026 season. Like several of Tampa Bay’s recent additions, this move is about creating depth, versatility, and competition.

ESPN's Adam Schefter was the first to report the signing.

Hall has taken a unique path to this opportunity. After going undrafted, he’s spent time with multiple teams, working his way onto rosters through persistence and special teams contributions. While his defensive snaps have been limited, his ability to contribute in multiple phases has helped him stick around at the NFL level. That’s exactly the kind of profile that can catch the attention of head coach Todd Bowles, as now ex-Buccaneer Christian Izien was once an UDFA and has now made it to his second NFL contract.

Hall has shown a willingness to do all three, giving him a legitimate shot to compete for a roster spot this offseason. His versatility is one of his biggest selling points. Hall has experience playing both inside and outside, which could prove valuable in a cornerback room that lacks defined roles beyond its top options. That flexibility allows the coaching staff to experiment with different combinations as they search for consistency.

Hall may not be a lock to make the roster, but he fits the mold: a hungry, versatile player with special teams value and something to prove.
