Former Eagles offensive guard Sua Opeta to miss Buccaneers 2024 season with torn ACL

Sua Opeta enhanced his skills with the Eagles while attending ‘Stoutland University’ turning four seasons spent as a reserve into a free-agent contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Opeta will have to wait to debut in Tampa after suffering a torn ACL during a recent practice.

In the seven games Opeta played offensive snaps last season, he allowed two sacks, one quarterback hit, and 19 pressures.

According to Pro Football Focus, since joining the Eagles as an undrafted lineman out of Weber State in 2019, Opeta has logged over 400 career snaps at left guard and almost 500 at right guard. A large chunk of those right-guard snaps occurred last season, including 69 snaps against Seattle, switching over to left guard against the Giants, and logging 65+ snaps.

He’ll now look towards 2025.
