As the 32nd and final pick of the first round in the 2021 NFL Draft, he would have been guaranteed $13.2 million for the 2025 season if the Bucs had picked up his option.
Tryon-Shoyinka, who turned 25 on Tuesday, set career highs with five sacks and 45 tackles in 17 games (12 starts) last season.
He has recorded 13 sacks, 31 quarterback hits and 114 tackles while playing all 51 regular-season games (34 starts) since his arrival in Tampa.
Tryon-Shoyinka faces new competition for playing time in 2024. The Buccaneers signed veteran Randy Gregory and spent a second-round pick last week on Alabama's Chris Braswell.
