Tampa Bay Buccaneers outside linebacker Shaq Barrett told reporters Thursday that his coming out of retirement isn't just for the Bucs' playoff run - he wants to continue playing after that for at least another two or three years.

Edge rusher Shaq Barrett's unexpected return to the Buccaneers went down last week, but Barrett said on Thursday that the team was not one of the first ones who reached one to see if he was interested in ending his retirement.

Two-time Super Bowl champ Shaquil Barrett was recently released by the Miami Dolphins so he can join a playoff contender. Barrett, who was supposed to play for the Dolphins this season, decided to retire at the beginning of the season but now wants to play again.
