Simeon Rice campaigning for return to Buccaneers at 43

Simeon Rice feels like he still has something left in the tank.

The former Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end retired 10 years ago, but insists he is serious about coming back to the team at age 43.

"If they want a pass rusher, they should bring in a pass rusher extraordinaire who was one of the dominant pass rushers of any era," Rice told Jenna Laine of ESPN. "What is it going to cost? You don't have one."

The Bucs recently placed pass rusher Noah Spence on injured reserve and sit last in the NFL in sacks. Rice believes he could still be productive in the right situation.

"My only request is you bring me in and let me play my brand of defense which is real pressure football -- sack fumbles and disruption," Rice said.

Rice sits 19th on the NFL's all-time sack list with 122.
