NFL Practice Squad Updates: 8/30/24

Wolford’s seven regular season appearances to date have all come with the Rams. The 28-year-old spent last season with the Buccaneers, though, working with then-offensive coordinator Dave Canales. Canales is now the head coach in Carolina, and Wolford has followed him in a bid to earn a 53-man roster spot at some point during the season. The Panthers already had Jack Plummer on their taxi squad, but Wolford will offer Canales and Co. a more familiar option behind Bryce Young and Andy Dalton.

Buccaneers Reduce Roster To 53

August 31st, 2021 at 5:46pm CST by Ben Levine

The defending Super Bowl champs made a long list of moves today to get down to the 53-man roster limit. The Buccaneers made the following transactions:

Waived

T Jake Benzinger
WR Cyril Grayson
S Javon Hagan
OLB Ladarius Hamilton
G Jonathan Hubbard
TE Tanner Hudson
WR Travis Jonsen
TE Codey McElroy
CB Herb Miller
OLB Elijah Ponder
DL Benning Potoa’e
DL Kobe Smith
T Brandon Walton
CB Chris Wilcox

Waived/Injured

T Brad Seaton

Released

TE Jerell Adams
QB Ryan Griffin
CB Antonio Hamilton
ILB Joe Jones
DL Jeremiah Ledbetter
WR Jaydon Mickens
RB C.J. Prosise

Placed on reserve/PUP list

WR Justin Watson

Griffin had been with the Buccaneers organization since the 2015 season, but he’s only seen time in a pair of games. After winning a ring last season, the veteran re-signed with the organization this offseason. For the time being, Blaine Gabbert and rookie Kyle Trask will serve as Tom Brady‘s backups.

Mickens is another notable cut, as the 27-year-old served as one of Tampa Bay’s primary return men in 2020. Mickens finished the campaign with 16 punt returns for 99 yards and 14 kick returns for 340 yards.
